What Are The Steps To Urge Maritime Liens?

Conduct

Application

The application for notification of maritime liens shall be submitted to the maritime court of the place where the pfer of the ship is delivered or the place where the pferee is domiciled.

Documents such as application form, ship pfer contract, ship technical information, etc. shall be submitted for application.

The application should specify the name of the ship, the facts and reasons for application.

Whether the original ship certificate can be provided will not affect the application.

Within seven days after receiving the application, the court shall make a ruling that is granted or not granted.

Priority notice

After approving the application, the maritime court shall issue a notice through newspapers or other news media, urging the maritime lien to claim the maritime lien during the period of urging.

The period for pressing the notice of maritime liens is sixty days.

During the period of maritime lien's exhortation, the maritime lien shall claim registration in the maritime court if he claims the right. If he does not advocate the right, he shall be deemed to have waived the maritime lien.

Application for ex rights

If a ship's priority is expired at the expiration of the period, if no one claims the right of maritime lien, the applicant shall apply for the invalidation judgment again.

Ex dividend decision and announcement

The maritime court makes a judgement on the application of the party, announcing that the pfer ship does not have a maritime lien.

The contents of the judgment are announced in the relevant media.
