This Fee Schedule sets out the standard fees and charges for services provided by the Vanuatu International Shipping Registry (VISR). Unless otherwise stated, fees are expressed in United States dollars (USD) and are payable prior to issuance of certificates or completion of the requested transaction. Third‑party costs (for example, courier charges, recognized organization or class fees, inspection attendance, and bank charges) are not included unless expressly stated.
The Maritime Administrator is empowered under the Vanuatu Maritime Act [CAP 131] (as amended) to determine and adjust registration fees, tonnage taxes and other applicable fees, and—where permitted—reduce or waive certain fees and waive or reduce administrative penalties.
