7 Following the receipt of copies of one or more
amendment forms, the Administration is required to issue a revised
and updated CSR document as soon as practically possible but not later
than three months from the date of the change. Amendment forms should not be completed by Administrations.
8 In the case of a change of flag, the previous
flag State has to issue a new CSR document to the ship showing the
date the ship ceased to be registered with that flag State. That flag
State is required to send a copy of the ship's CSR file, as soon as
possible and preferably not later than one month from the date the
ship ceased to be registered, to the new flag State. The new flag
State is required to issue a new CSR document as soon as possible
and not later than three months after the date of change of flag.
9 As soon as possible, but not later than three
months after a change of flag, the new flag State is required to issue
to the ship a sequentially numbered CSR document.
-
9.1 In instances where the previous flag State
has not forwarded, within three months from the date of change of
flag, the CSR file of the ship covering the period during which the
ship was entitled to fly its flag, to the new flag State, then the
new flag State should issue to the ship a CSR based on the CSR information
received from onboard the ship. The sequential number to be allocated
to the CSR document to be so issued should be the second sequential
number after the last sequentially number shown on the CSR document
found (i.e. leaving first sequential number unused). The new flag
State should explain, in entry box 14, the reason for issuing the
CSR document in such a manner.
