Articles 2 to 5 of the Convention. Seafarers’ identity documents. In reply to its previous comments, the Committee notes with interest the information provided by the Government in its report indicating that Indonesia has aligned its procedures for Seafarers’ Identity Documents (SID) with international standards, including ICAO guidelines, and integrated them with national immigration processes.
