Procedure entry in the register of yachts

Zorana Kostović

Sažetak

The procedure of ship registration is regulated in the Maritime Code of Croatia (2004). This procedure, in comparison with the recently suspended Maritime Code of Croatia (1994), includes substantial changes, especially in the domain of yacht registration. New Maritime Code has founded special yacht-register for yachts and yachts under construction. A yacht which is registered as a Croatian yacht is entitled to the benefits conffered by the Maritime Code of Croatia (right to fly a Croatian flag, etc.). There are two modes proscribed under the provisions of Maritime Code of Croatia (2004) for yacht-registration: 1) mandatory and 2) facultative. Yachts whose owners are Croatian citizens with residence i Republic Croatia or companies which are registered in the Republic of Croatia are obligated to register under the provisions of Maritime Code of Croatia (2004). On the other hand, yacht whose owners are not Croatian citizens or whose owners are Croatian citizens but without the residence in the Republic of Croatia, can be registered in the Republic of Croatia, depending on the will of the owner. Yachts under construction can be registered in special registers for such kind of vessels if they are built in Croatian shipyards (owners can be either Croatian citizens or foreigners). Jurisdiction in this matter belongs to port authorities and all procedure is carried out in accordance with the rules of administrative procedure.
