Vessel Surveys
We offer vessel surveying, carried in and outside Malta, for both private and commercial registered yachts. All surveys are carried out by a Malta Flag Government appointed surveyor having extensive experience in the maritime industry.
We carry out commercial surveys onboard yachts of 15 metres and over including pre-coding/gap-analyses surveys toward achieving a Commercial status under Malta Flag. Our services include an extensive array of surveys as well as high-level consultancy services at the request of Owners and Ship Managers, Charterers and Underwriters, amongst others.

Radio Surveys
As part of the Malta Flag Registration process, Yachts are required to carry out a Radio Survey by a qualified Radio Technician or Surveyor, who is in possession of certified and calibrated testing & measuring instruments (EPIRB tester, AIS tester, Frequency counter, Multi test meter, etc) and holds a valid recognized certificate from an IACS Classification Society or a recognized administration.
At AML, we offer our assistance in carrying out a Radio Survey through our collaborators, ensuring that the Radio Survey will be a smooth and easy process for Owners. Through our international partners, we are able to service vessels in most ports around the world at very competitive prices.
