SHIP VISITS
5.1
The
Routine visits by US Naval vessels, US Coast Guard cutters and research vessels must have prior clearance. This should be sought via the British Embassy in Washington. maximum possible notice should be given and, except where this is unavoidable, this should be taken to be an absolute minimum of 5 working days. Clearances for ship visits are normally made telegraphically though, where urgent operational reasons require a short notice clearance, this can be done by telephone.
