  35. Hi Sailor Insight,

    Tks for the uploading the procedure for GMDSS renewal…in your procedure there is no mention of selecting “TELECOMMUNICATIONS” as the controller, when registering as new user…as per the BHARATKOSH user guide, unless you select TELECOMMUNICATIONS, the RECEIPT FOR DoT tab does not open…the registration has to be done specifically for TELECOMMUNICATIONS…pls find below from the user guide of the BHARATKOSH
    Quote:
    Question 20. On Bharatkosh Website payment to DoT option is not appearing.
    Answer: – User has to create a login ID specifically for DoT, then only the receipt purpose will be visible for making payment.

    Question 29. User has registered himself/herself in NTRP. However, at the time of making payment, purposes of Department of Telecom not listed even under ministry list TELECOMMUNICATION not available.
    Answer: – For making payment towards purposes of Department of Telecom, users must have to select Controller name – Telecommunication” during registration in NTRP.

So you are requested to pay fee accordingly” and on Feb 2019 i called WPC regarding the remaining payment procedure, they informed that need to pay remaining amount in bharatgosh either 9000/- for lifetime or 4000/- for 20 years (Note: Before i paid 1000/-rs in bharatgosh), Now i need to send both Transaction receipts along with acknowledgement letter and requesting letter with GMDSS Details thats it, i will update again once i receive the Renewal letter, Thanking you..

    company letter i have submitted without any specific like above some1 mention for goc renewal.
    Thank you very much

  69. Dear Jerry
    now as per the latest procedures of renewal of goc no need to register on wpc website. you need to download the cop23 form. and fill it manually and follow the procedure explained above and send all the document along with the application form and bharatkosh receipt to the regional office.

  70. I have followed the payment procedure on bharatkosh.gov.in and made the payment. I cannot save the details in License payment page to generate the application ID in wpc.dot.gov.in. So cannot get the online registration acknowledgement slip. Kindly advise if online registration is required for 2nd renewal of GMDSS GOC.

  71. Kindly advise if online registration is required for 2nd renewal of GMDSS GOC. I have followed the payment procedure on bharatkosh.gov.in and made the payment.

  73. Helpful site – One question PAO to select the office to which I will finally send my application?
    For eg: New Delhi RLO so to select 077177 Controller of communications New Delhi
    Please confirm

  74. I have made a transaction of 1017 INR by using my credit card, In the end it says transaction failed but same time i got a message on my mobile number that money has been deducted from my account. Does it take time to reflect it on site as upon checking it says that no transaction has been done.

  75. No need to pay again just you submit your documents to Mumbai RLO.i hope they will consider. share your experience also once you renewed your goc.

  76. GMDSS GOC Renewal:
    While paying through bharatkosh, i selected purpose “GMDSS Licence” instead of ” (GOC)GMDSS ” in drop-down list. I already paid the money (Rs. 1250). The only option showed was in favor of ” 077188 – CONTROLLER OF COMMUNICATION ACCOUNTS, PAO HEADQUARTER, NEWDELHI”
    Is that OK as I am sending the documents to MUMBAI RLO.
    I have not send the documents yet . So do I need to pay the fees again to MUMBAI RLO after selection the purpose as ” (GOC)GMDSS “

  77. Dear sailor in sight

    1)Just wanted to confirm if I shoud send my application to – RLO – Eastern Kolkata
    2)Also would like to clarify if CDC copies are enough or company letter is required too.
    (My seatime letter is a colour printout of a scan my office sent by email – will it be accepted?)

    Many thanks in advance

  101. I am a radio officer holding COP 2nd class certificate. While filling for for GMDSS GOC renewal form, what should i write under “Particulars of certificate(s) of Competency/Proficiency held by applicant”?
    My GMDSS GOC details which is being renewed or COP 2nd class details?

  102. Both certificate copy required to attest and photograph not required. As you rcvd A4 size renewal page only

  103. 1. You can apply from on-board if you can manage your signature on cop 23 and other documents.also for attestation Gazetted officer may ask your presence.
    2.No need to send photograph as you rcvd A4 size renewal page only
    3. 3 month before expiry of your goc you can apply.

  104. @ Lakhwinder – 6 month required in last 5 years.there is a old version of COP 23 is available on some website please download from sailorinsight the latest version of COP23.

  105. @Lakhwinder- now procedure is change no more online registration on wpc website required.

    FYI you will rcvd your GMDSS GOC in 30 to 40 days of applying. Most of my friends whose application was rejected were informed by a rejection letter within 40 days. It might seem frustrating not to be able to track your GMDSS GOC renewal status, however if it is taking much longer than this I amadvise you for online RTI to Wireless planning and coordination Wing WPC with your details. Do let us know how long it took you to get your GMDSS GOC extension letter. Best of luck

  106. Please advise 6 month experience is required in last 5 years or in last 3 years as the COP23 form is asking for last 3 years experience.

  107. Do we have to fill online application on WPC website. How can we trace our application status. Please advise.

  108. Dear Friend, is it gmdss coc which we have to get attested or the 2nd mate coc ? Also please advice regarding photographs . Thank you

  109. kindly reply for my doubts
    1,Can i apply for gmdss renewal while i’m sailing on board through my parents?
    2,Don’t i need to send any photographs of mine.?
    3,Can online Payment and other paperwork for renewal could be done 8 months before expiry of license and send it exactly 6 months before expiry?

  110. Can we get the documents attested by a notary ? Is it mandatory that docs should be attested by a state or central government guessetted officer ? Also, nothing is mentioned regarding photographs. Do we have to send any photographs ?

  111. Nothing like that you can ask from company for two copies and this letter is only for goc.for mmd purpose you can ask another sea time letter from company and company can not denied.

  112. Dear insight, as you had mentioned In one of your replies to some other candidate that original sea time letter is required. If we submit original sea time letter, then what about the sea time letter which is also required in original for mmd examination purpose or assessment purpose. Companies issue sea time letter only once. Pls advise

  113. Yes in your sea time letter one line should be mention that you have done raidio communication on GMDSS equirements on your comp. Vessel

  114. Dear sailorinsight

    One more thing I want to ask that sea time letter from company needs to have anything mentioned about GMDSS compliant vessel something like that. Pls advise

  115. @Venkat Time taken to receive Renewal letter- 28 days(25 in a Metro town)and you can apply 6 months before expiry of your existing goc

  116. Dear sailorin sight,

    How many days normally it take to get new GOC. And how many days before we can apply for new GOC before the expiry of existing one.
    Thanks

  117. Thank you very much for taking time and effort to update the procedure.
    IN NTRP, If under purpose, you select GOC(GMDSS), Payment type- Licence renewal fee, you get all 5 options under PAO. I think selecting GOC(GMDSS) instead of GMDSS Licenses should be the correct Purpose? Because when you select GMDSS Licenses you are not getting option for Late Fee payment which you get when you select GOC(GMDSS) as purpose. Please check and confirm.

  118. @shan you select the second one controller of communication accounts PAO Headquarter. I checked personally nothing is coming like that. when we select the fee for renewal of GMDSS only the second option is coming.

  119. @Akash send your documents to Mumbai as your goc was issued from Mumbai.for tracking of your application you should contact RLO by mail or phone.

  120. I have for GOC issued from Mumbai. Do I need to send the renewal application to Mumbai Orr Delhi. I could not get online application as my GOC details were not there in the database. I will be sending all the documents. Is there any way I could track the application.

  121. Many thanks for providing conversation place for GOC renewal. My GOC place of issue is New Delhi (Exam conducted in Mumbai). When i am paying through Bharatkosh, apart from Maharashtra, Tamilnadu, West bengal, there are two other options in drop down list: 1- controller of communication accounts, New Delhi, 2- controller of communication accounts, PAO Headquarter. Which one should i choose?

  122. You just wait for some time or you can contact to MOC regarding your application.

  126. Sailor community will be highly obliged if Sailorinsight can publish lastest procedure to renew GMDSS GOC. for example, it is still not clear whether one has to first log in to wpc.dot.gov.in and then you will redirected towards payment page. Also how does one find out RLO addresses and more fundamentally which is your RLO. Need complete guide with screen shots. (including of NTRP payment). Please consider request.

  127. Dear sailor insight
    Understood ur last msg but do I need to log in on wpc website as well, or not. And just to follow as advised above in ur last msg.

  128. @Rahul As per latest info. Latest procedure is Take bharatkosh receipt printout, goc copy, cdc seatime copy, coc copy, original seatime letter from company, form COP 23 for Goc renewal available on google or IMU website.
