Recreational Skipper - Health Declaration

A health declaration required when applying for the recreational skipper certificate (fritidsskippersertifikat) — the certificate that entitles you to operate recreational boats with a hull length of up to 24 meters. We carry out the examination and issue the health declaration.

The health requirements are set by the Norwegian Maritime Authority. The most important are:

  • Vision: at least 0.5 with both eyes examined together (glasses or contact lenses are allowed)
  • Normal color vision (Ishihara test or equivalent)
  • Hearing: able to hear normal speech at a distance of 4 meters, with or without a hearing aid
  • No illness or health condition that increases the safety risk on board

See the Norwegian Maritime Authority's guidance below for the complete requirements.
