Cayman Islands – does the RECOGNITION OF QUALIFICATION AS A SHIP’S COOK expire?

Today I had an update from Cayman Islands Registry regarding whether or not there is an expiry date on the Recognition of Qualification as a Ships Cook letter.

Basically there is no expiry.. great news for yacht chefs.

Many chefs were being told it expires after 5 years but this confirms this isnt the case. phew!

Recognition letters issued after 5 July 2023 have no expiry date on them and those issued before this date even though there is an expriry date on those issued prior to this date the Recognition remains valid as long as you have a valid medical certificate, valid refresher or current stcw and level 3 or above food hygiene certificate.
