Description:
International Registries, Inc., and its affiliates (IRI) provide administrative and technical support to the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) Maritime and Corporate Registries. The RMI Registry is one of the leading registries in the world surpassing 192 million gross tons with 5,198 vessels at the end of May 2022. IRI has a network of 28 worldwide offices located in major shipping and financial centers throughout the world that have the ability to register a vessel or yacht, including those under construction, record a mortgage or financing charter, incorporate a company, issue seafarer documentation, and service clientele. The most important asset to the RMI Registry is its customers, and IRI strives to provide them with full service from any office, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
IRI., along with the Maritime Administrator and Corporate Registrar, have adopted an extensive know your customer and due diligence policy (collectively “KYC”), which includes, in part, vetting of all known parties to any transaction in which either IRI or the Administrators are to be involved. This vetting is performed by all regional global IRI offices on an initial basis. Any matches that cannot be resolved at the local level are sent to the Headquarters Legal Department, Trade Group, for further analysis by the team of Trade Evaluators.
