Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2010, published 100th ILC session (2011)

Seafarers' Identity Documents Convention, 1958 (No. 108) - Guinea - Bissau (Ratification: 1977)

The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

Article 4(2) of the Convention. Particulars of seafarers’ identify document. The Committee notes from the specimen identity document (Cedula de Inscricao Maritima) sent by the Government that it still does not contain the required statement that it is the identity document issued for the purpose of the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to include this statement in the identity document and to forward a modified specimen of the identity document.
