Brokerage requirements in Spain

Spanish maritime procedures set out registration and ownership-transfer duties for recreational boats, but do not create a separate yacht-sales broker licence. In Murcia, a broker should therefore distinguish the brokerage agreement from the statutory change of owner. Check whether the craft uses the general flagging and registration route or the special registration regime available to certain CE-marked boats up to 12 metres; retain its current registration certificate or navigation permit. Spanish Maritime Administration, ownership and registration procedures

The seller must notify the Maritime Administration of the transfer within three months of its date; the buyer may also notify it. The filing must include documents that justify the change. The signed sale agreement, vessel identification and current registry papers help connect the contract to the record being changed. EU customs guidance says a boat remaining in EU customs territory normally retains Union-goods status; retain invoices and import evidence relevant to VAT.

EYB arranges local brokerage support in line with these requirements, and its qualified lawyer prepares the sale contract and handles registration. Compare the seller’s title with the vessel and register details, then retain signed copies of the completed file. European Commission, guidance on VAT and customs for pleasure craft

Deposit, contracts and completion process

When you accept an offer, the buyer secures the agreement by depositing 10% of the sale price into a designated escrow account. This deposit is held while the contract conditions, as outlined in the agreement, are fulfilled by both parties.

After all contract terms are satisfied, the final payment is transferred straight to you, completing the sale. This process safeguards your interests and ensures a straightforward transfer of ownership.

Seller's checklist

  • Gather the ownership documents, registration papers and tax status.
  • Collect invoices, manuals and the maintenance history.
  • Prepare an up-to-date inventory of equipment.
  • Agree the mandate, asking price and viewing arrangements in writing.
  • Have the boat clean, tidy and ready to demonstrate its systems.
  • Weigh every offer with written conditions and clear timings.
  • Arrange secure payment and handover with a signed record.
