The Gibraltar Ship Register is a member of the Category One Red Ensign Group of the United Kingdom and United Kingdom dependency registers. The advantages of registering a ship in Gibraltar are many, not least fiscal and the benefits that derive from Gibraltar’s status as part of the European Community and therefore the freedom to transport cargoes under the cabotage system. The Gibraltar Ship Register is fully recognized as an EC Member States’ Register.

With the exception of fishing vessels, ships propelled by nuclear power and ships not classed with one of the recognised Classification Societies, the Register is open to all types of ships irrespective of size though ships over 20 years old will require special approval before being accepted.
