What is a yacht’s flag state?
A yacht’s flag state determines its administrative nationality and identifies the country in which the vessel is officially registered. The choice of flag state is a significant decision, as it determines the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the vessel, particularly with regard to: ■ Tax obligations ■ Safety requirements ■ Navigation regulations ■ Administrative formalities By flying a flag, a yacht falls under the laws and maritime authority of the relevant state, including when navigating international waters.
