Restrictions on Waiver. - A waiver of entitlement to repatriation shall be valid only if it is written and made freely and voluntarily, with full knowledge of its consequences.
When a seafarer is abandoned; held captive on or off the ship as result of acts of piracy or armed robbery against the ship; or is incapable of traveling due to illness, injury or incapacity, or other causes that affect the seafarer's safety and security, no waiver shall be allowed or presumed.
