Welcome to Maritime Service Compliance System (MSCS)

New Authorization required to access MSCS effective December 16, 2023.

Based on an Executive Order signed May 12, 2021, effective Dec 16, 2023, all MARAD applications will require users to have an account with Login.gov to access applications externally. This affects MSCS (your reporting vehicle).

The Maritime Service Compliance System (MSCS) assists graduates of the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy and the State Maritime Academies who were enrolled in the Student Incentive Payment (SIP) Program with completing the required annual compliance reports for the period of their service obligation after graduation.

Failure to comply with your service obligation may lead to induction into the U.S. Armed Forces or repayment of (a) the cost of the education you received while enrolled at USMMA or (b) the amount of SIP funding you received from MARAD.
