Combined Maritime Services, a Maltese maritime consultancy firm, has been invited, for the second consecutive year, by Lloyds Maritime Academy of London, to lead sessions in the annual seminar on ship registration in London.

Lloyds Maritime Academy invited Combined Maritime Services’ to share its findings of its comparative analysis of ship registration costs.

The study focuses on the 10 leading flags of registration, including Malta, and highlights the costs incurred to register a vessel under any one of these flags. This year, apart from this presentation, Combined Maritime Services was also invited to lead a workshop session and to sit on a panel discussion dealing with the theme of open registers against closed registers.

This year’s attendees included flag state administrations, classification societies, shipping companies, legal firms, ship owners, and accountancy firms.
