Liberian International Ship & Corporate Registry (LISCR, LLC)
Description
The Liberian Ship & Corporate Registry The Liberian Registry, established in 1948 by former U.S. Secretary of State Edward Stettinius, is recognized as one of the foremost open ship and corporate registries. For more than 60 years, the country's commitment to safe shipping has remained steadfast.
The Liberian Registry is a sovereign maritime jurisdiction responsible for the registration, regulatory enforcement, and safety of ocean-going ships. The Registry establishes identification details for ships and records legally enforceable documents, such as mortgages and bills of sale.
The Registry is also responsible for the enforcement of maritime treaties, including Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS); Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL); Standards for Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW); and the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 (MLC, 2006).
The Ship Registry runs in parallel with the Liberian Corporate Registry, which performs the same functions as the corporate registration services of any other government.
The Liberian Registry is strong and growing. The Liberian-flag fleet posted record growth figures in 2011 and has more than doubled in size since the management of the Liberian Registry was assumed by LISCR. The dedication and commitment of quality owners bringing in new acquisitions and new construction vessels continues the growing trend. The result is a declining average age of the fleet – currently at 12 years.
