Renewing your Deck License can be a seamless process if you gather all the necessary forms and meet the Coast Guard's requirements.
Below is a detailed guide to help you through the application process:
Although not strictly required, maintaining a current CPR/First Aid certification is essential if you plan to work under your license. While the Coast Guard does not require you to submit proof of this certification as part of the renewal application, it’s mandatory to have it in place when actively operating professionally.
If you are working as a captain professionally, you must also be enrolled in a random drug testing program to comply with federal regulations. This ensures that your operations remain in line with safety standards.
Finally, we recommend including a copy of your current credentials in your renewal packet. This step can expedite the review process by making it easier for the Coast Guard to cross-reference your existing records.
By preparing these documents in advance and double-checking your submission for accuracy, you can ensure a smooth and hassle-free license renewal experience.
