Chetcuti Cauchi’s Maritime Law Practice Group also plays a key role in case of port inspections of Malta registered ships /yachts. Registered Malta ships / yachts occasionally undergo port state controls by local port authorities, when berthed in ports around the world. In such cases, it is imperative that clarifications are provided by the hosting flag state authorities as quickly as possible, thus allowing the vessel to proceed with its intended voyage. Any tardivity would seriously prejudice clients in view of the delay in the itinerary, and hence lead to actions for loss or damage by its customers. Chetcuti Cauchi is able to act as a middleman between the two authorities ensuring that the requirements imposed by the foreign port authorities are satisfied speedily and the Malta registered ship / yacht is able to continue with its voyage.
