Registry Overview

The Singapore Registry of Ships (SRS) is ranked the fifth largest ship registry in the world, with a fleet of more than 4,400 vessels on its register. It is the administration responsible for executing the proper registration of vessels sailing under the Singapore Flag and ensuring that vessels and owners meet the stringent criteria that entitle their ship to obtain Singapore nationality. Many banks and vessel financiers also highly regard the SRS as a quality vessel registry that safeguard their interests over the vessels they finance. Singapore, officially the Republic of Singapore, is a sovereign island city-state in maritime Southeast Asia. Languages of Singapore are English, Chinese, an Malay with English as the de facto main language.

Registration Office

The Singapore Registry of Ships is headquartered in Singapore.

Registration Requirements

Registration of a pleasure craft with the Singapore Registry of Ships (SRS) is voluntary. However, if the vessel is destined to foreign waters, it is advisable to register and obtain a nationality. The procedure and details are available at MPA's website. A pleasure craft must be at least 7 meters in load line length with an enclosed deck, must not be more than 17 years old at the point of registration, must not be constructed of wooden hulls, must not be used as a passenger ship, and must not be constructed of inflatable design. Singapore-registered pleasure yachts can be owned by a person who is ordinarily resident in Singapore or a Singapore business entity such as a corporation, a firm, partnership or association. Foreign owned companies with business addresses in Singapore will qualify.

Recording Methods

The Certificate of Registry for a Singapore registered yacht is valid for one year and may be renewed annually from the date of expiry of its initial registry or last renewal. A register of mortgages is maintained by the MPA. It contains the name and address of the mortgagor, the name and address of the mortgagee, the date of the mortgage, date of registration of the mortgage and the ranking of the mortgage.

Registration Search

Transcripts of registry for Singapore yachts showing ownership, mortgages, and vessel particulars can be obtained from the registrar's office or a private vessel registration company.
