We understand, Immigration Authorities in the ports of Recife and Suape, in North East Brazil, are applying ILO Convention 108, which means that seafarers should hold a Seaman’s book issued by their Country or the vessel’s flag state, both of which MUST BE SIGNATORIES TO THE CONVENTION. Seafarers who do not fulfil these requisites must hold a valid Passport (with the corresponding competent/valid visa in case of countries which require similar formality from Brazilian citizens). If not, they will be banned from leaving the vessel and subject to a fine in the region of US$500.

海员证件ILO C108和ILO C185 – 巴西
据了解，位于巴西东北部的累西腓和苏阿普港口的移民局正适用公约ILO C108，这就意味着海员应持有由其国家或者船旗国签发的海员身份证，这两国家都必须是公约的签署国。不符合这些前提条件的海员必须持有有效的护照, 如果没有，海员将会被禁止离开船舶并且根据当地罚款500 美元。
