摘要总结AI 辅助解读

新加坡海事及港务管理局（MPA）发布2010年第3号港口海事通告，实施亲商举措。自2010年3月1日起，凡在新加坡船舶登记处（SRS）注册的港作船（Harbour Craft），其港作许可证将改为终身有效，无需每年续期。此举旨在简化许可程序并降低行业运营成本。但持证人仍需持续符合SRS及九大认可船级社的要求。若船舶注销或暂停SRS注册、或拖欠MPA费用，终身许可证将被撤销或暂停，届时需申请临时许可或一年期许可证方可继续作业。未注册或外国注册的港作船仍维持一年一证制度。

PRO-ENTERPRISE INITIATIVE – LIFETIME VALIDITY OF HARBOUR CRAFT

LICENCE FOR VESSELS REGISTERED WITH SINGAPORE REGISTRY OF

SHIPS

1 As a Pro-enterprise initiative, with effect from 1 March 2010, harbour craft

which are also registered with Singapore Registry of Ships (SRS) will be issued a

licence with lifetime validity.

2 These harbour craft shall continue to comply with all or the relevant

requirements of the SRS and the 9 recognised Classification Societies. The

lifetime harbour craft licence shall remain valid as long as the vessel is registered

with the SRS. This initiative simplifies the licensing procedures for vessels

registered with SRS and reduces the operating cost for the industry.

3 Harbour craft registered under foreign registries as well as those without a

registry will continue to be issued with a licence valid for one year to operate

within the port.

4 The validity of the lifetime licence of the harbour craft will cease as follows:

Vessel closes its registry with the SRS

(a) When the vessel ceases to be registered with SRS, the life-time

harbour craft licence will be revoked. In the event, the vessel is still

required to carry out operations within the port waters, it will be

issued with a temporary harbour craft permit or a harbour craft

licence valid for a year, provided that the vessel satisfy the

requirements of the harbour craft regulations.

SRS suspends the vessel’s registry

(b) When the SRS suspends the registry of the vessel, the life-time

harbour craft licence will be revoked or suspended accordingly. In

the event, the vessel is still required to carry out operations within

the port waters, it will be issued with a temporary harbour craft

permit or a harbour craft licence valid for a year, provided that the

vessel satisfy the requirements of the harbour craft regulations.

Outstanding fees due to MPA

HARTS maintenance fees, etc) to the Authority, the lifetime harbour

craft licence will be revoked or cancelled.

5 All harbour craft licences that had been revoked or cancelled should be

returned to the MPA’s One Stop Document Centre. It is an offence to operate

any craft within the port waters without a valid licence and the maximum penalty

for such an offence is $5000.

6 Any queries relating to this circular should be directed to Ms Puvaneswari
