International Group of P&I Club sent the comments below.

The Club was contacted by the owners on 13 July in relation to a Ukrainian crew member who was insisting on receiving his wages in cash (for understandable reasons given the situation in Ukraine). However, the Club were advised that this is not permitted in Iran (possession of foreign currency, especially US$ is not allowed in Iran). This has contradicted the advice the crew member has received from ITF in Tehran and he has therefore refused to disembark unless he is paid in cash.
The owners have confirmed to the Club that they have paid the crew wages of all the seafarers on board the vessel and there is no issue of outstanding crew wages. Regarding the Ukrainian seafarer who insisted on being paid in cash, the Owners have remitted his wages up until 31.07.2022 to the manning agents in Ukraine, as there was no other alternative.
Maritime Industry Authority (MARINA) of the Republic of the Philippines were contacted on the same matter, with regards to the Philippine crew where it was claimed that the Philippine crew had outstanding wages. The Club have also engaged their correspondents in Philippines and will provide an email to Maritime Industry Authority (MARINA) of the Republic of the Philippines confirming no outstanding wages.

The Owners are trying to find a solution together with the correspondents and the local agents in Iran, and would appreciate assistance of the ITF Tehran office to persuade the seafarer to accept the payment that has already been made to the manning agents in Ukraine. Once the payment issue is resolved, the seafarer will be repatriated and not continue his work on board the vessel.

1.The seafarer has not yet been paid for the months of march, april, may, june and the current days of july.
2.The seafarer employment contract expired on the 19th of march 2022.
3.The seafarer has repeatedly requested to be repatriated and paid. His request has been passed by this organisation to the owners as well as to the Flag Administration,with whom we have been in touch on it, many weeks ago.
4.The seafarer is still awaiting on board to be paid and disembarked- been informed today that there is intention to repatriate hin on the 26th f july. The main issue seems now to be that the seafarer is asking for a Guarantee that he will be paid his total dues for the months mentionned above value $21799(march Up to 20th july 2022) wages at the local agent office, after disembarkment.

The request to ITF for assistance is no longer required as the seafarer has agreed to disembark the vessel and attend the office of the local agents in Bandar Abbas in order to receive his wages in cash. Once they resolve this issue, the Owners will arrange for his repatriation.
