RENEWAL OF CERTIFICATE OF DOCUMENTATION
A Certificate of Documentation must be renewed on a yearly basis.The
Coast Guard facilitates the renewal process by sending a notice of
renewal (CG-1280) to the managing owner approximately 45 days prior to
the expiration of the document.If there is no response to the Notice of
Renewal a warning notice indicating that the document has expired is
sent to the owner approximately 10 days after expiration.Operation of
the vessel with an expired certificate may result in a penalty of up to
$500.00 per day.There is no fee for the renewal of the certificate if it
is accomplished prior to the expiration date.Though the Coast Guard
sends notices regarding the renewal of the document, the ultimate
responsibility of renewing a Certificate of Documentation rests with the
owner.It is important to keep the National Vessel Documentation Center
informed of any change of address to insure timely receipt of these
renewal notices.*Changes of address may be made by FAX (304) 271-2405 or
by e-mail to: *[email protected]

If the Certificate of Documentation is not renewed within the time
frames stated on the notices of renewal it must be re-issued which
requires an Application for Documentation (CG-1258) and an $84.00 fee
plus applicable endorsement fees, $29.00 for a coastwise or $12.00 for
fishery.Applications, instructions and a complete fee schedule are
available at this web site.

And then it would only show up with the CG registration number search???
That could explain some things; like why I don't get the yearly patch
any longer. I thought it was just an admin change at the CG.
