§ 7304. Citizenship notation on merchant mariners’ documents
An individual applying for a merchant mariner’s document shall provide satisfactory proof that the individual is a citizen of the United States before that notation is made on the document.
(Pub. L. 98–89, Aug. 26, 1983, 97 Stat. 542.)
Section 7304 specifies, that before a merchant mariner’s document is noted to specify that the individual is a U.S. citizen, the individual must provide satisfactory proof that he is a citizen. This does not impose a requirement of United States citizenship as a condition for issuance of a document.
