The German Seamen's Mission (German: Deutsche Seemannsmission, DSM) is a Protestant organization centered in Germany that provides pastoral and social welfare services to commercial seafarers. It operates seafarers' centers in Germany and internationally, with full-time and voluntary workers. The Mission's offices are in Hamburg.[1]

It is a member of the International Christian Maritime Association.[2] As a Christian organization, it sees its work as the extension of neighborly love to seafarers regardless of religion and culture.[3] The German Seamen's Mission defines its mission as "support of seafarers' dignity" and its goal as the improvement of seafarers' living and working conditions.[3]

In response to COVID-19, the DSM was actively involved in advocating for[4] and providing[5][6] seafarer vaccinations and shore leave.[7]
