Frequently asked questions

I need access to the shipyard premises. What do I need to bear in mind?

Access is only possible with a valid shipyard pass.

Which shipyard pass is the right one for me?

Short-term pass: For access for one day up to a maximum of three weeks; a distinction is made between office visitors and visitors to the production area (e.g. tradesmen, engineers).

Shipyard passes must be applied for in advance.

How do I apply for a shipyard pass?

Short-term passes for office visitors can be applied for without a form from the contact person/site manager at MEYER WERFT.

Short-term passes for visitors in production are applied for with a form by the main contractor from the contact person/site manager at MEYER WERFT.

Permanent passes are applied for using a form by the main contractor who has concluded a valid contract/order with MEYER WERFT GmbH & Co. KG. Subcontractors must apply for the shipyard pass via the main contractor. The forms can be sent by e-mail to anmeldung-mw@meyer-port4.de.

What do I need to bear in mind when specifying subcontractors?

When employees are registered for permanent passes by the direct contractor of MEYER WERFT, it is mandatory to disclose the actual employer of the employee(s) to MEYER WERFT.

  • If you are only registering employees of your own company, please enter an "x" in the "Subcontractor" field in our registration form in future.
  • Should you register employees who are employed by one of your subcontractors, it is mandatory to note the corresponding company name in the field "Subcontractor"
  • If further subcontracting exists, please disclose this in detail in the email text or note "no further subcontracting".

Incomplete registrations must be rejected. If incorrect information is provided, this may lead to further consequences (e.g. deregistration of the persons concerned).

What documents do I have to show when I collect my shipyard pass?

A valid identity card/passport (valid official photo document) and proof of health insurance (e.g. health card) must be presented when collecting the shipyard pass.

Can expired/inactive shipyard passes be reactivated?

Yes, by selecting the "Extension" registration type on the "Registration, extension and deregistration of employees (Supplier) at MEYER WERFT GmbH & Co. KG" form.

What do I have to do if I have lost my shipyard pass or if the pass is damaged?

Since you as the contractual partner bear full responsibility for permanent passes, a report of loss or damage must be made immediately to one of the gatekeepers at the gates.

What should I do if I have found a shipyard pass?

Please report immediately to the gatekeeper at the gates and hand in the shipyard pass.

Unauthorised use or passing on of shipyard passes may constitute a criminal offence!
