Training and medical in Romania
In Romania, the Romanian Naval Authority (Autoritatea Navală Română, ANR) in Constanța is the maritime administration for the STCW Convention. It examines seafarers, issues certificates of competency and proficiency, and approves education and training providers and each of their course programmes.
The ANR publishes a list of approved education providers with the validity date of every approved programme. Main providers include the Constanta Maritime University, the "Mircea cel Bătrân" Naval Academy and the CERONAV training centre in Constanța and Galați. Check that your course is still valid on the current list before enrolling.
Seafarer medical examinations must be done by the transport-safety medical commissions listed by the ANR, whose doctors are approved under STCW Regulation I/9.
You can check a Romanian certificate on the ANR licence validation portal using the document number and the holder's date of birth.
