Subject to the provisions of paragraphs (3) and (4) of this Article, where a person who is ordinarily resident in the territory of either Party is employed in employed earner’s employment on board a ship or vessel of one Party the legislation of that Party concerning industrial injuries insurance shall apply to him as if he were resident in the territory of that Party.

Where a person who is ordinarily resident in the territory of one Party and insured under the legislation of that Party, and employed either in the territory of that Party or on board any ship or vessel of that Party, is sent by an employer in the territory of that Party to work on board a ship or vessel of the other Party, the legislation of the former Party concerning liability for contributions shall continue to apply to him provided that the employee continues to be employed and paid by that employer. No contributions shall be payable in respect of that employment under the legislation of the latter Party provided that a request for a certificate of continuing liability has been received by the authorities of the former Party within the first four months of the period of detachment and presented to the appropriate insurance authorities of the latter Party within two months of its issue.
