The Coast Guard has confirmed that only mariners holding the new Merchant Mariner Credential will be able to access the Web site feature allowing mariners to print mariner documents suitable for framing. Mariners who hold a license and have not yet obtained the new combined Merchant Mariner Credential will not be able to download and print a certificate suitable for framing from the U.S. Coast Guard's Homeport Web site.
Mariners who hold a valid Merchant Mariner Credential (MMC) can download, save, print and display such a certificate. The certificates are for display purposes only and will not serve as a valid substitute when posting an MMC is required. The service is available online. There is no fee associated.
