Article 1
Without prejudice to paragraph 2, a Member State may, where necessary, allow a seafarer to serve in a capacity other than radio officer or radio operator, except as provided by the Radio Regulations, for a period not exceeding three months on board a ship flying its flag, while holding an appropriate and valid certificate issued and endorsed by another Member State, but not yet endorsed for recognition by the Member State concerned. All shipowners and vessels accessing EU ports must pay their employees’ wages and social contributions at least equivalent to the wages and mandatory contributions in application of the applicable codes and conventions in the Member State of destination. The European Agency shall verify that all vessels that are checked flying the flag of one of the third countries concerned by the application for recognition comply with this rule. If this is not the case, the Commission may not grant recognition until the third country has proved that the shipowners have complied with this rule.

A Member State which intends to recognise, by endorsement, the certificates of competency or the certificates of proficiency referred to in paragraph 1 issued by a third country to a master, officer or radio operator, for service on ships flying its flag, shall submit a request to the Commission for the recognition of that third country, accompanied by a preliminary analysis of the third country's compliance with the requirements of the STCW Convention by collecting the information referred to in Annex II, including an estimation of the number of masters and officers from that country likely to be employed and the number of qualified European citizens seeking a job of the same type.
