Declaration form ‘Radio Installation on-board non-SOLAS Vessels’ is required for submission
Transport Malta issued Shipping Notice to remind all those concerned that, non-SOLAS ships of less than 300 GT, being registered under the Merchant Shipping Act shall either comply with the General Authorisations (Radiocommunications Apparatus) Regulations (S.L.399.40 of the Laws of Malta) or else hold a valid Individual Ship Radio Station License depending on the type of equipment installed.
Shipowners are therefore required to submit the “Declaration – Radio Installation on-board non-SOLAS Vessels” to establish whether the installed radio communication equipment falls under the said legislation.

Failure to present the declaration may result in delays in the processing of the application for ship registration and the issuance of the Certificate of Malta Registry
