Why RMI?
Ranked as the third largest registry worldwide with Paris and Tokyo MoU ‘White List’ status, RMI have a dedicated team of yachting professionals supporting your operation.
Actively involved with IMO, RMI were the second country to ratify MLC, 2006 and because of their good standing in IMO have developed strong working relationships with other major yachting Flag Administrations and Classification Societies, helping to take a leading role in shaping future Maritime Legislation and Conventions.
Perhaps the most compelling attraction is their innovation and development of new ownership structures and registration types, in some cases unique to RMI. Their Large Yacht Code, MI-103, is lodged at IMO as equivalent to SOLAS, comparing favourably to LY3 and RMI Flagged yachts are eligible for US Cruising Permits.
Well recognised as a ‘client facing’ flag, their pragmatic approach and speed of response and service make them an attractive proposition to owners and operators alike.
