There are some local Laws and Ministerial Decrees in addition to the Maritime Code regarding vessel registration, crewing, and restrictions on the activities of the foreign flag holding vessel and classification of port activities according to the port ordinance. These are also applicable in every individual Emirate.
It is absolutely impossible to register a vessel in UAE without 100% ownership of UAE national or a company holding 51% ownership by UAE national. The UAE registration will be cancelled if a vessel is sold & get the entity of another country. The UAE government never allows a foreign owner to get his vessel’s registration in UAE. It is always maintained in UAE that the owner of any vessel company must preserve the citizenship of UAE nationals. Our UAE Maritime Lawyers and admiralty attornies will not only help you in getting out of the problem, but will also educate you about the laws and your rights.
