Hi,
I'm new to the forum and wanted to say hi. I also have a question and may be a silly question but I was wondering if anyone know how/where I can get/request a new PADI card. I've lost mine.
To replace your PADI card, you can go here and follow the directions. For replacement of a certification originally issued in North or South America (except Canada) there is a $25 fee, and you will need to submit a new photo. Other areas will charge their respective fees.
Thanks for such a quick reply..wow. I will follow the link but I was just wondering if it would matter if I certified (PADI instructor) in Asia. I will check out the link(s) you sent.
I certified in Bali and misplaced my card I had to deal with PADI Australia and Stephanie there was very helpful.
It can take some time to recieve a replacement however if you ask they will fax a letter for a fee of course which will cover you for a temporary period, I think it was 60 days. If during your next trip you certify advanced, you need not replace your open water card to prove your qualification therefore saving some money.
This is very late and you've probably sorted it out already but...
for future reference, I believe South East Asian countries come under PADI Australia - I've had to send off for all my PIC cards to Oz. Not that it should matter as any queries should be forwarded by PADI to the correct office.
PeeJaa... you're probably in Thailand by now so Sawasdee Kha, welcome to the Scubaboard and welcome to the Land of Smiles! How are you finding things? Have you managed to get any diving in yet? If there's anything you want to know about anything in this country and can't find a single other soul to help - let me know, na ja?!
