Duplicate Certificate Fishing Vessel UK – Registry Copy Guide
Losing or damaging your Certificate of Registry can interrupt your fishing operations and create legal complications. If your vessel is registered under Part 2 of the UK Ship Register, requesting a duplicate certificate is essential to remain compliant with Marine and Coastguard Agency (MCA) requirements.
At Vessel Registrar, we guide vessel owners through the duplicate certificate process quickly and correctly, so you can stay focused on your work at sea.
When Do You Need a Duplicate?
A replacement certificate is required when the original:
- Is lost, stolen, or misplaced
- Becomes damaged or illegible
- Must be presented for mortgage or transfer purposes
- Is required onboard as part of your operating documents
The duplicate is an official replacement that holds the same legal value as the original certificate.
