Change of Address for Your Vessel Documentation
Your vessel’s documentation isn’t just paperwork—it’s the official record of where your vessel is registered, who owns it, and how it’s legally recognized. If your address changes—whether the vessel’s port, your home, or your business address—you need to update that information. We make the process straightforward and reliable so your records stay accurate.
Failing to update address details can lead to misdirected notices, regulatory issues, or even delays in renewing your registration.
When to Request a Change of Address
You’ll want to submit a change if:
- Your home or business address changes
- The vessel’s principal place of operation shifts to a different port or state
- You relocate to another jurisdiction
- You reorganize ownership and need to reflect new contact addresses
- You need the official records to match your current operating location
Timely updates protect your compliance and correspondence.
