Investigation Reporting Forms


It is a requirement under Bahamas legislation for a Bahamian ship or ships in Bahamas waters to report certain events – reporting requirements can be found in Marine Notice 04.

The BMA’s Reporting Portal is a smart reporting tool that has been designed with the limitations of ships’ internet connections in mind and is the method for submitting reports. The forms below are supplementary or provided to help meet the requirements of other Administrations.

If in any doubt as to the reporting requirements, or if you are having difficulties with the Reporting Portal, please contact the Investigations Department at: [email protected]
