Certification
The S & Q Department shall make sure that a valid DOC is obtained if the owner wishes to fly a flag other than the flags where DOC already are obtained. The class will normally issue an Interim DOC immediately however the Class might require a verification audit of the Office if the flag state in question has additional requirements to the ISM code.
Interim DOC is valid in 12 month and full term audit of the new flag will be performed during the first coming annual audit of the Office.
