An Indos number is a number assigned to Indian seafarers; to check an Indos number, you need documentation from the government agency that assigns these numbers to their workers. There is no online calculator or website that allows seafarers to check their numbers. Therefore, if you have a problem with your number and need to confirm that it is correct, you should really contact the federal government or contact the municipal government, who can then direct you to the right person to help you with your inquiry. In general, you should be sent or given all of the information that you need about your number when you become a seafarer registered in India.
To get one of these numbers, any aspiring seafarer will need to complete a series of courses, or modules, related to the rules and regulations that a sailor must follow while he or she works on a ship or vessel. Only certified trainers and sea captains are allowed to upgrade the status of seafarers, and to decide who should get their Indos number. As you can see, the whole process of obtaining an Indos number is quite formal and regimented; therefore, it's important that a potential seafarer understands a lot about the process before they begin their career.
To work at sea, a person must be a team player; following rules, pulling together with others, and performing duties efficiently is key. People who live and work at sea for long periods of time tend to gain a sense of true camaraderie with their co-workers, and this can be very gratifying. However, working at sea also requires sacrifices, since friends and family may be left behind for long periods of time.
