- In an attempt to ensure adequate levels of security in relation to the medical documents of sailors ("Documents"), as well as to eradicate forgery and to establish a uniformity of Documents, the Director-General of Sea Transportation ("Director-General") has decided to revise the technical specifications that apply in relation to Documents ("Specifications") by improving their level of confidentiality through the issuance of Decree No. KP-DJPL 92 of 2023 ("Decree 92/2023"). Previously, said Specifications were set out under Decree of the Director-General No. HK.205/3/9/DJPL/2019 ("Decree 3/2019"), which has now been repealed and replaced.
- Details of the Specifications are comprehensively outlined under the Appendix to Decree 92/2023, while Documents themselves should address the following matters: 1) Sailors’ medical certificates; 2) Sailors’ medical status sheets; and 3) Medical records books. The issuance of the aforementioned Documents should be carried out by the Shipping Manpower Medical Center (Balai Kesehatan Kerja Pelayaran/BKKP) as required and should address the available budgetary funds in accordance with relevant laws and regulations.
- In terms of forgery prevention, the Director-General may evaluate the Specifications at any time deemed necessary. Furthermore, the utilization of Specifications that adhere to Decree 3/2019 remains applicable but must be adjusted to the provisions that feature under Decree 92/2023 within one year of Decree 92/2023 entering into force.
- Decree 92/2023 has been in force since 3 February 2023.
