established in Jamaica, can be registered as the owner of a Jamaican ship. There is no need for incorporation in Jamaica neither is the use of Jamaican crew mandatory. The use of Jamaican crew however, provides a benefit
to the Owner. Non-Jamaican entities need only engage a Jamaican individual or entity in Jamaica as an Authorized Representative of the owner, to be registered. The vessel must be established as seaworthy in flying the
Jamaican Flag. The Registry Team happily provides guidance in the process. <a class="lnk-primary learn-more" href="#">Learn More <em class="fa fa-angle-right"></em></a></span></div>

available Jamaican ships to provide the service. Such vessel must demonstrate for the satisfaction of the MAJ, their ability to conduct the indicated trade in a safe manner and appoint an Agent in Jamaica. The vessels
must also demonstrate their seaworthiness to the satisfaction of the MAJ, for the intended trade. It is possible also for non-Jamaican specialist crew to work onboard Local Trade Vessels, subject to the approval of the

Any entity established with the authority to own ships, whether or not established in Jamaica, can be registered as the owner of a Jamaican ship. There is no need for incorporation in Jamaica neither is the use of Jamaican crew mandatory. The use of Jamaican crew however, provides a benefit to the Owner. Non-Jamaican entities need only engage a Jamaican individual or entity in Jamaica as an Authorized Representative of the owner, to be registered. The vessel must be established as seaworthy in flying the Jamaican Flag. The Registry Team happily provides guidance in the process. Learn More Jamaica is open for Business!

Such vessel must demonstrate for the satisfaction of the MAJ, their ability to conduct the indicated trade in a safe manner and appoint an Agent in Jamaica. The vessels must also demonstrate their seaworthiness to the satisfaction of the MAJ, for the intended trade.
