Update digitalisation Dutch certificates

In the Netherlands, DGLM, Kiwa, and ILT are conducting pilots to investigate how digital documents can be issued. The first pilot has been completed, and phase II of the pilot will start in the spring. This means that the Netherlands does not yet formally issue digital documents, and therefore physical documents are still the only accepted form on board. Copies or scans are not allowed and may cause issues during inspections.
