The Maritime and Coastguard Agency requests beneficiary ownership details, when an application is received to register a merchant vessel on the UK Ship Register, through the requirement of the Bill of Sale, or if the vessel is new build, the New Build Certificate; the Declaration of Eligibility; and the Certificate of Incorporation, to be supplied as part of the registration process.
