Government-backed. Verified. Compliant.
Trust is the foundation of maritime crewing. AFSS Crew Manning is certified and backed by NIMASA, and built around the Cabotage Act and rigorous verification.
Recognized by Nigeria's federal maritime regulator
NIMASA backing means our verification standards, processes and marketplace operate within a recognized regulatory framework — so seafarers and shipowners can engage with confidence.
The pillars of our compliance
Four commitments that make AFSS Crew Manning a trusted standard for maritime crewing in Nigeria.
NIMASA Backing
Our platform is certified and backed by the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency — the federal regulator for Nigeria's maritime industry — giving every engagement government-grade credibility and oversight.
Cabotage Act Compliance
Nigeria's Cabotage Act requires vessels operating in Nigerian waters to use qualified Nigerian crew. AFSS Crew Manning is built to help shipowners meet this requirement reliably and transparently.
Document Verification
Every seafarer must upload and clear six required maritime documents — and complete a verification meeting — before becoming discoverable to shipowners.
Security & Audit Trails
Encrypted data, signed document access with expiry, and full activity logging mean every action on the platform is secure and accountable.
Crew with confidence
Join a NIMASA-certified, Cabotage-compliant platform built on verification and trust.
