Flag, tax & customs

Where will she be flagged?

Intended flagWhere she will be keptUse

EU member state

Malta

Often chosen by: EU-based owners and commercial yachts operating in the Med

Tax implications to review

EU flag: VAT status of the yacht still has to be established separately from the flag.
Owning through a company is common; ownership structure affects tax outcomes — expert review required.

Customs process · Movement within the EU

France → Greece

Confirm and document the yacht’s VAT status (listing says: Paid, broker-declared).
If VAT-paid evidence is complete, movement within the EU usually needs no import declaration.
If VAT status is unknown or unpaid, a specialist must review before the yacht moves.
Register with the destination’s local authorities (cruising tax, berthing, licences).

Registration documents

Bill of sale
Deletion certificate from previous registry
Builder’s certificate or proof of build
Tonnage / measurement certificate
Company documents if owned via a company
Radio licence application

Expert review required. VAT, duty and eligibility depend on owner residence, ownership structure and use. No rates are shown on purpose.
