Sec. 10.219  Issuance of duplicate license or certificate of registry.

    (a) Whenever a person to whom a license or certificate of registry 
has been issued loses the license or certificate, that person shall 
report the loss to the Coast Guard. A duplicate license or certificate 
may be issued by any Regional Examination Center after receiving an 
application with an affidavit describing the circumstances of the loss 
from the applicant and verification of the license or certificate record 
from the Regional Examination Center where it was issued or from the 
National Maritime Center. The duplicate will be prepared in the same 
format and wording as the license or certificate being replaced. A 
duplicate license is issued for the unexpired term of the lost license. 
Duplicate licenses and certificates of registry bear the following 
statement: ``This license (or certificate) replaces License (or 
Certificate) Number ---- issued at ---- on the above date.''
    (b) If a person loses a license or certificate of registry by 
shipwreck or other casualty, a reissue of that license or certificate or 
registry will be supplied free of charge. Other casualties include any 
damage to a ship caused by collision, explosion, tornado, wreck, 
flooding, beaching, grounding, or fire.
    (c) If a person loses a license or certificate of registry otherwise 
than by shipwreck or other casualty and applies for a reissue, the 
appropriate fee set out in table 10.109 in Sec. 10.109 is required.
