Fifth Supplemental Advisory on the Contingency Measures to Address the Impact of the Middle East Crisis on the Philippine Maritime Industry
- What changed
- The fifth in MARINA's running series of contingency measures responding to the escalating Middle East / Strait of Hormuz crisis and its impact on the Philippine maritime industry. It updates the earlier contingency packages — which have included validity relief for the STCW certificates of seafarers stuck onboard (see Advisory 2026-30) — as the threat picture evolves. Filipino seafarers transiting or serving in the affected region should read it alongside Advisory 2026-30 and the IBF designated risk-area list; confirm the specific measures, covered areas and effective period in the official advisory before relying on it.
