Verified Nigerian Crew. Compliant Maritime Operations.
AFSS Crew Manning is the digital platform that connects qualified, document-verified Nigerian seafarers with shipowners and crew agencies — faster, more transparent, and fully compliant.
We digitize Nigeria's maritime crewing
Traditionally, hiring crew for vessels in Nigeria was slow, manual and opaque — shipowners spent weeks searching contacts and verifying credentials, while qualified seafarers struggled to find work. We bring both sides onto one trusted, government-backed platform.
