Re: Where do we flag our boat?

It is unclear to me whether you are asking questions or answering them. Yes, it does matter where the boat is. Once known that you brought the boat into European VAT territory if they look at your...

Re: Where do we flag our boat?

That iw not what OP is planning to do. OP wantz to buy a boat that is "overseas", which presumably means outside the European VAT territory.

Re: Where do we flag our boat?

I am afraid no lawyer can change the facts of the transaction, whcih are very important. Last time I looked at this of the transaction happened outside EU Vat territory then the so-called "VAT-paid...

Re: Where do we flag our boat?

You are mixing things. We are talking about recreational use; your point on 49/51 ownership is for commercial (charter) use. An "alien" like GW could own 100% of the corporation that owns the boat. ...

Re: Where do we flag our boat?

I disagree.

I have not idea where the expression "Crusing Permit" comes from. When I go to CBP I ask for a "Crusing License" and get a piece of paper that says "License To Cruise in the Waters of...

Re: Where do we flag our boat?

It gets even better. AFAIK with the cruising license you do not need to $18k Florida tax unless/until you turn from alien into citizen.

Re: Where do we flag our boat?

The link does not support claim #1, which I find untrue anyway. I am the first to complain about the US Feds making life difficult for "aliens" as they call us but I think the Cruising License works...

Re: Where do we flag our boat?

Many thanks Dockhead! There are many things I have not told you and that is probably a good thing!

Jokes aside, my daughter was under 18 during my last stint in the US. I will keep your...

Re: Where do we flag our boat?

No, at least in theory.

Movement reporting is driven by "foreign" status of the boat ( 19 CFR 4.3 note 9). State numbers do not turn a boat owned by a foreigner into a US boat, even though the...

Re: Where do we flag our boat?

Thank you and Dockhead for alll the good stuff. Yes, she is a US citizen but I would not think of suing my daughter/CEO/Chairwoman/Director because she is studying law and would kick my butt! :smile:

Re: Where do we flag our boat?

Great stuff, now let me ask you something for the future (US East Coast cruising). Can my wife and I (both "aliens") incorporate "La Morocha Corp" or LLC and appoint our 18-year old daughter (who...

Re: Where do we flag our boat?

We are referring to recreational boats; I understand for other uses it is more complex.

I hesitate to argue with lawyers, but your are a good guy and you do not charge me $600 per hour :smile:, so...

Re: Where do we flag our boat?

I do know that any idiot (including an "alien" idiot) can control a US corporation. I am a living proof of that, but that has nothing to do with boats. Not every corporation is deemed to have the...

Re: Where do we flag our boat?

What is wrong with 46 CFR 67.39? I presume you refer to a boat for recreational use, in which people get away with nominees for hire. For other uses there are more requirements that mean "real"...

Re: Where do we flag our boat?

I see lots of great info in this post but I clarify two points that may be misleading.

- Yes, the UK Registers will register boats owned by residents of the UK that are not British, but ONLY IF...
