To make the “Zeebrief” possible we only need:

  • Copy of your notary legalized passport or ID card.
  • Bill of Sale

That’s all!

In the case of a previous registry also a copy of the deletion document will be needed.

Next to this the Dutch Cadastre will send their inspector on board of your yacht for inspection and do the marking and carving.

This inspection is not included in the offered yacht registration price and will be offered to you based on cost price by the Cadastre. The average costs for an inspection in Europe is between 750-1000 euro. This is a one time cost only. The inspection does not need to be redone!

The inspection is not a technical inspection and can be done on the dry or in the water.

In normal cases the whole “Zeebrief” procedure will take approx. 4 weeks.
