Using old and new programme documents

Conatus Mobility now uses Naoero in its English programme content. Older documents may still refer to Nauru, so their dates and subject matter remain important when reading them.

Application forms, certificates and other formal documents must use the name and version required by the responsible authority. Holders should not alter the country name on documents already issued.
