In the event of a transmission of ownership for a registered vessel, in instances of death, bankruptcy, or other lawful means, Transport Canada does require that they be notified with official documentation. Using what is called a Form 8 -Declaration of Transmission, which is a form that clearly delineates a change in vessel ownership, you will be asked to officially file this information. At Canadian Vessel Registry Center, we can help you submit this documentation with our painless, easy-to-use online filing portal. You’ll find that we make submitting your Declaration of Transmission as simple as possible.
