Renewal of agreement

The Liberian Bureau of Maritime Affairs has reached an agreement with the Liberian International Ship & Corporate Registry (LISCR), the US-based manager of the Liberian Registry, to extend for a further ten years the agreement under which LISCR manages the registry.

LISCR has managed the Liberian Registry since January 1, 2000. During this period, the registry has greatly improved its levels of service, safety, security and client satisfaction, as a result of which it has attracted a record number of shipowners from around the world. Under LISCR management, the registry has grown in size from 1,700 vessels of 53 million gross tons to over 3,000 vessels of almost 90 million gross tons – the highest totals in its sixty-year history.
