By now you probably know that a very important part of the responsibility of owning a vessel is to do the initial registration process with Transport Canada. Unfortunately, there are more additional steps involved in maintaining a vessel throughout the years. That being said, the registration of your vessel is crucial for a great number of reasons. After all, it is this paperwork that allows your sailboat to operate in Canadian waters. This implies that it must be kept up-to-date for the duration of your ownership. That is why a change of address with Transport Canada is so crucial.
Having To Deal With Transport Canada
If you’ve never done this before, dealing with Transport Canada for a change of address can be time consuming. You might not know where to go or what to do in order to complete the work. We at the National Vessel Registry Center Corp. can help you with that. We’ve been doing it for years. We double-check that we have all of the forms you’ll need for boat documentation, including the essential change-of-address applications, so that way you don’t have to worry about missing any important documentation. You may find the form right on our website and fill it out online with your new address and contact details. Simply complete the form and send it to us, and we’ll take care of the rest.
How To Change My Address
As we mentioned previously, the change of address, while not difficult, might take some time to gather, fill, and send the proper items. For example, here are a few things to remember:
The current and registered official name of your ship. (If you’d like to know more about the process of changing the name of your boat, be sure to also visit our website.) You’ll also need your government assigned vessel’s registration number. As far as address information goes, you’ll need the owner’s name whose address has changed as well as the new address documentation or proof.
Once you’ve double-checked that you have all of this information, it’s time to mail Transport Canada a change of address form. You can choose between Priority Request/Rush Processing, a Certified Transcript, and/or an Uncertified Transcript of your change of address, and the fee is indicated on the forms. Another way is that you can do so by filling out our online address change application through our online portal.
