- [Child Benefit for Seafarers: Who Can Claim and How Does It Work?](http://www.nscc.lt/child-benefit-for-seafarers-who-can-claim-and-how-does-it-work/): For seafarers working internationally, understanding which country is responsible for family benefits can be complicated. A seafarer may work on a vessel connected to one country while their spouse and children live in another, and the family may potentially have rights under more than one social security system. This makes child benefit for seafarers an important part of understanding the wider social security protections available to maritime workers.
- [Which Offshore Training Courses Do You Need?](http://www.nscc.lt/which-offshore-training-courses-do-you-need/): To help workers operate safely and meet industry requirements, employers often require offshore training before personnel are allowed to travel to or work at an offshore facility. Depending on the sector and job role, this training may include internationally recognized programs such as OPITO-approved courses for the oil and gas industry, Global Wind Organisation (GWO) training for offshore wind technicians, or maritime training based on the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW).
- [What Is a Seafarer Visa and Why Do Maritime Professionals Need One?](http://www.nscc.lt/what-is-a-seafarer-visa-and-why-do-maritime-professionals-need-one/): Depending on the destination country, nationality, vessel type, and travel route, maritime professionals may need a seafarer visa, crew visa, transit visa, or another type of entry permit before travelling.
- [Tax Refund for Seafarers: Eligibility, Documents and Process](http://www.nscc.lt/tax-refund-for-seafarers-eligibility-documents-and-process/): Seafarers often work across different countries, flag states, and tax systems. As a result, taxes or social contributions may be deducted from their salary even when part of that amount could potentially be reclaimed later.
- [What Is a Seaman Book and Why Do Seafarers Need One?](http://www.nscc.lt/what-is-a-seaman-book-and-why-do-seafarers-need-one/): Working at sea requires more than professional skills and maritime certifications. Seafarers must also carry specific documents that prove their identity, qualifications, and sea service experience. One of the most important maritime documents is the Seaman Book.
