The minimun required information should be provided and the corresponding fee paid. Once the documents are submitted and the fees paid, a Provisional Patent will be issued by the main office in Panama which is valid for a period of six months. A provisional Radio License for three months will also be issued. The whole process takes approximately two working days. The Statutory Patent and the Radio License are issued only in Panama. These are valid for a period of four years and are granted after all the documents have been submitted. Likewise, it is required that the title of the Shipowner has been duly inscribed in the Public Registry. In the case of the Radio License, this is issued only when the interested party submits a complete application, indicating the communications equipment the vessel will have on board and complying with the GMDSS. 
Minimun required documents for Provisional Registration: 1. Copy of Power of Attorney. 2. Copy of DOC, SMC & ISPS Certificates. 3. Information to Panama Maritime Authorities of vessel details and the Company responsible for Radio Expenses 4. Payment of applicable taxes and fees. Required documents for Permanent Registration: 1.

Inspections & Surveys: All vessels must pass an annual inspection to ensure that they meet with international safety regulations, carry up to date certificates and are properly manned and equipped for their intended trade. To prevent the enrollment of potentially hazardous ships, vessels built over twenty years ago must be inspected before a permanent Patent can be issued.
