Pros of having yachts or vessels registered in the BVI
  • The BVI shipping registry is part of red ensign group.
  • Ability to sail under the british flag.
  • Protection of the british consular service, british judicial system, royal navy and british naval forces.
  • Unlimited registration period (may be reduced to 10 years due to the transition from the 2nd registry to the 1st one).
  • No taxes on profits generated by using or reselling the vessel.
  • Confidentiality of owner information (allows minimizing both business risks arising from competition, insolvency or potential personal claims).
  • Easy transfer of title to your vessel (no tax or bureaucratic costs since it is not the vessel that is sold but shares in the company, therefore, the owner can actually be changed without a change in the name specified in documents).
