This circular provides members with an update on the position of States Parties with regard to the issue of Bunker Convention certificates to vessels registered in non-States Parties, and informs members that the UK, Liberia and Cyprus have agreed to issue certificates to such vessels. The contact details of each of the issuing authorities in these States is provided, although it should be noted that Cyprus has only agreed to issue a limited number of certificates to ships registered in non-State Parties and not to vessels on a registry listed on the Paris MOU black list.
