Apply for a FSE confirmation of receipt
A confirmation of receipt of application (CRA) can be issued to companies upon receipt of a FSE application.

Details
A CRA can be used on board a vessel for a maximum of 3 months in place of a physical UK Flag State Endorsement.
Only companies can apply for a CRA. CRAs cannot be used for fishing applications.
We can also issue a CRA against a replacement FSE application for lost/stolen FSEs.
A CRA must be fully completed (except section 2 which the MCA will complete) and submitted as a one page PDF attachment.
Please email the completed CRA to fse@mcga.gov.uk along with MSF 4203 and supporting documents.
We aim to issue CRAs within 2 working days.
