     The Flag of the Republic of Cameroon

     Ship registration in Cameroon is governed by The CEMAC Merchant Shipping Community Code of 3rd august 2001 as amended on 22nd August 2012. The registration process entails the provision of certain requirements, in view of accomplishing a successful procedure and obtaining a registration number in Cameroon.

     Ship registration in Cameroon in accordance with the CEMAC Code constitutes the aspects of Individualization/Personality of a vessel and the title of nationality given to a vessel. The elements which constitute the Individualization/personality of a ship are as follows:

●   The name of the ship

●   The port of registry

●   Nationality

●   Tonnage

●   Registration number

●   In default, the identification number of the International Maritime Organization

     However, the elements that constitute the personality of a ship are quite different from the regime of ship registration in Cameroon.

     The ship registration process in Cameroon entails submitting to the competent maritime authority certain documents, such as: Certificate of Nationality of the vessel, Tonnage certificate, Matriculation certificate etc.

     When you submit these documents to the competent attorney, the maritime authority will engage due diligence on the documents. The maritime authority will designate an expert to survey the vessel if satisfied with the documents presented. The expert report will determine if the registration will be successful or not.
