Please be informed that MARINA’s SID/SRB systems experienced a cyberattack on August 13, 2026, resulting in the temporary suspension of regular SID/SRB processing nationwide.
MARINA is working with DICT and its systems providers to secure the systems, protect database integrity, and restore normal operations.
For seafarers with immediate deployment requirements, expedited appointments may be accommodated at any MARINA SID/SRB Processing Center.
Confirmed regular appointments affected by the system downtime will be honored and rescheduled without additional cost once operations are restored.
