Applying for a notice of eligibility (NOE)

ALL APPICANTS MUST APPLY FOR NOE EITHER FROM INDIA OR AFTER GOING TO UK
SEASTAR EDUCARE WILL GIVE COMPLTE GUIDANCE AND ASSISTANCE IN APPLYING NOE FOR ALL THE CANDAITES.
Students needs to apply for an NOE to the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA), UK to be eligible to sit for the written and oral examinations in the UK. You can apply for your NOE from India prior to going to the UK or you can apply for your NOE during your stay in the UK. It is not necessary to be in possession of NOE for booking the course. However, if you have doubts that some of your sea-time may not be counted by the MCA for whatsoever reasons (for e.g. missing documents, no stamps on the CDC, company did not give sea service letter, sailed on Gulf ships, etc.), it would be advisable to do your NOE before booking your course. The processing time for the NOE is normally 28 working days but it may extend to a few months also if the MCA is not satisfied about the authenticity of your documents. If your documents are found to be forged, all your documents will be seized and you will not be allowed to sit for exams in the UK again. NOE is Valid for 3 years.
