HMGoG's Yacht Registration facilities provide a broad range of yacht registration services including general registrations, name changes, ownership transfers as well as the registration of a yacht under construction in Gibraltar.

In each case, the registration process is simple and straightforward, with the added benefit of belonging to the Red Ensign Group post-registration. Names can be reserved free of charge and you can check availability on the Gibraltar government's vessel checker tool.

To register a yacht under construction in Gibraltar one must first complete a GYR-15 Application form. The cost of the application for provisional registration of a yacht under construction is £175 for pleasure and commercial yachts under 24 meters and £450 for commercial yachts which exceed 24 meters in length, while to apply for an extension for provisional registration of a vessel in excess of 24 meters costs £200.
