Ship Registration Sanctions & Compliance Ship Arrest Ownership & Structuring Insights About Book a consultation →
Singapore maritime practice

Your ship’s Singapore side - flag, compliance and the law behind it.

We register vessels under the Singapore flag, keep them clear of sanctions and price-cap exposure, and arrest a debtor’s ship when you need security - with the ownership structures behind it all.

On the ground in Singapore - one senior adviser on your file, admiralty action run with local counsel.

Why it matters

A ship in the wrong structure is a liability

Registration is the easy part. What protects you is everything around it - and getting that wrong surfaces at the worst possible moment: a bank, an arrest, an audit, a sale.

01

One ship, one company

Each vessel ring-fenced in its own entity, so a claim against one hull never reaches the fleet.

02

Compliance that holds

Flag, insurance and ownership arranged so the structure survives sanctions and bank scrutiny - not just today.

03

Someone accountable

A senior adviser who owns your file and stands behind the structure when it is tested.

Behind the ship

Ownership & structuring, built to hold

Every registration and compliance file sits on a structure: the company that owns the vessel, its flag, its mortgage and its board. We design and run that structure - so the ship is owned the right way from day one.

Vessel-owning SPV & holding
Ship mortgage & security documents
Sale & purchase (MOA), transfers
Resident manager & board
