world.” The Agency has its head office in Rarotonga, closer in<br />
time zone for its Asia Pacific clients, and another in Italy to<br />

So let’s talk pretty flags. Trivial? You betcha. Important? 100%!<br />
The most colourful flag in the world belongs to Belize (with a<br />
whopping twelve colours) but it ranks on the Black List of the<br />
Paris MOU, so you really don’t want that one. But this is not<br />
really a casual decision and you will need professional assistance<br />
to weigh up all the ‘pros and cons’ of each registry and the<br />
ultimate usage of the yacht. At the end of the day, if the flag<br />
(like the proverbial glove) fits your requirements, AND is a pretty<br />
colour, then wear it!<br />
FRENCH INTERNATIONAL REGISTER<br />
The RIF is one of the six registers available under the French Flag, open to<br />
ships with a commercial activity. The RIF fleet currently counts 415 ships with<br />
a total gross tonnage of 7.7 million UMS, and includes 153 commercial yachts<br />
(+ 80% since 2020). Created in 2005, the RIF re-established the attractiveness<br />
of the French flag. Its package offers an advantageous tax system allowing the<br />
shipowners to reduce the acquisition costs of their ship due to tax-based leasing<br />
(‘French tax lease’) and helping them to develop a more environmentally friendly<br />
fleet with the ‘green extra depreciation’. The shipowners are also more attractive<br />
as employers, thanks to the tax exemption on incomes. For those wanting to<br />
make a difference in tomorrow’s yachting, make a difference, choose France !<br />
