In Portugal, the published boat-transfer process is an administrative registration task for the buyer or representative; it does not state a standalone yacht-broker licence. For the property record, the buyer may file the title issued by the maritime authority and evidence of acquisition, including the purchase contract. The same country-level duties apply in Portugal. DGRM, transfer of ownership of a recreational craft
To record a Portuguese recreational-craft sale, the purchaser files the application online and attaches the seller-named licence or equivalent and the document proving the purchase. For a new or newly imported entry, the first-registration checklist requires proof of ownership and technical conformity documentation. Keep original invoices and import evidence for the VAT file, since EU guidance generally treats a boat in EU customs territory as retaining Union-goods status.
