Reporting Maritime Security Relevant Offences (MSRO)

An MSIC holder is required to report to AusCheck or their issuing body any convictions which are considered to be maritime security relevant offences (MSRO’s) within seven days. An MSIC holder is still required to report these offences even if the person is not sent to prison.

To do this you can complete the Self Reporting form available on the AusCheck website or download the form from this site under the Forms/Templates and Useful Contacts tab. Failure to provide this information is a criminal offence, which could result in prosecution and penalty fines.

What is a MSRO?

Broadly, an MSRO is an offence related to terrorism or certain acts of violence such as aggravated assault or armed attack relating to a vessel, port or offshore facility, unlawful interference with maritime transport or offshore facility, racial hatred and vilification, fraud, corruption and drug trafficking that may preclude a person from holding an MSIC. Please note that speeding fines, parking tickets, general driving offences and minor drug offences are not considered to be MSROs.

What happens when an MSIC holder reports an MSRO?

AusCheck will conduct an additional background check to determine the MSIC holder's eligibility to hold an MSIC.
