DG Shipping profile issue with UK COC

Please note, I have done my Mate/Master COC from UK. I have some certificates which I could not update in DG Shipping profile update section as Institute name does not exist !
Have sent several msg to DG Shipping but no reply.

Name: KINGSHUK CHAKRABORTY
DOB: 01/10/19XX
INDOS NO:  XXXXXX
CDC No: XXXXXX

REQUEST URGENT HELP, AS MY CDC HAS EXPIRED & I CAN'T APPLY DUE INCOMPLETE PROFILE.

  I am not sure but I would suggest following

  
  
  1. Contact DG Shipping
     I admit, DG Shipping never reply back, yet they still remain the first choice (they created eSamudra right !). I have collected all relevant DG Shipping contact details, please try them and check if it helps.
  
  
  2. Apply for CDC Renewal with incomplete profile
     I know it may sound crazy but for CDC renewal you do not need to send any original document. You can update whatever eSamudra is allowing you. Sign your DG Shipping profile as previous data are correct and send the attested copies of new UK certificates with your CDC renewal form. The worse which can happen is rejection of CDC renewal application but perhaps they might understand that its an eSamudra problem and not your fault. If they accept it they might send you the CDC renewal sticker. You can check CDC renewal procedure for renewal sticker or CDC replacement procedure for filled pages
  
  
  3. Try Profile comment section
     Try comment section under each marine course / certificate and write UK college and certificate details. In such a case your profile should not be considered incomplete !
  
  Best of luck for your CDC renewal and please do update this post with new findings to help other mariners facing the same issue.

  Dear Rishi
  Many thanks for your valued inputs. Will try with the new contacts. Have contacted MMD Kolkata, they will not accept application with incomplete profile. They have just raised their hands as it is not their problem !! Also contacted Mr.Atul of DG Mumbai (in-charge of E-Governance) he did not received any emails !!!. Looks like it is design flaw of the system & will take time to resolve. Lets see. Will update you.
  Many Thanks

  I too have my MEO class 2 certificate from UK and had done my pre-sea training courses from Singapore, hence I too was not able to update the maritime institute list in the profile but just mentioned the same in the comments section...
  After that I applied for renewal of CDC in April 2014 and i got my renewal sticker...
  So I suggest what Rishi says, just fill up what esamudra allows, rest you can mention in the comments section...
  All the best for the same

  Hi Rishi,
  Refer our above thread, please note I have received my new CDC . A great relief.
  Earlier had a talk with Mr. Atul from DG Shipping, who is looking after E-Samudra.
  As per him it is designed to record courses done in India only.
  As per his suggestion I have entered UK courses with different (Indian) Institute name & then giving details in comment section. That solved the problem.
  Got my CDC from Kolkata MMD with-in 8 days of application.
  Many thanks for your kind help on this matter,(in-fact your suggestion was also same).
  
  Best Regards
  Kingshuk
