The RYA issues the ICC under the delegated authority of the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA).  This meets the needs for boaters who wish to boat on the inland waterways in Europe and the Mediterranean.

You may wish to consider taking a full RYA Inland Waterways Helmsman direct assessment which qualifies you for your practical ICC endorsement. The assessment is a full day and allows for additional skills practice requires a minimum of 2 students.

Applicants for the inland waters category must additionally pass the CEVNI test on the European inland waterways regulations for the RYA to issue their ICC which is then valid for 5 years.
