The Cayman Islands Shipping Registry, a division of the Maritime Authority of the Cayman Islands, is a Category One British Registry and as such is able to register vessels of any size, age and type, from small yachts to super tankers, provided quality standards are met. However, as a matter of policy, fishing vessels are not currently being registered except those owned locally and operating in Cayman waters.

The Cayman Islands provides a prompt and efficient registration service. The broad range of in-house expertise is well able to deal with all the main elements of operating a registry, namely registration, surveys, certification, the welfare of seafarers, safety at sea and pollution prevention.

• Some of the many advantages of registering in the Cayman Islands are:
• Competitive registration, survey and tonnage fees
• Professional marine survey capability
• A stable political fiscal and social climate that is well suited to ship owners’ needs
• Absence of direct taxation
• Choice of a wide range of legal structures that qualify to own Cayman registered ships
