PCA (Post Construction Assessment) is the CE certification of a boat that has been manufactured and registered. PCA is a CE Certificate module. All yachts and recreational boats between 2.5 and 24 meters whose manufacture are completed must obtain a PCA certificate.
Dutch Certification Institute
Only “Notified Institution” can issue a PCA Certificate. Istanbul Marine Project, affiliated to DCI (Dutch Certification Institute), the leading CE certification institution, is one of the leading institutions authorized for PCA certification in our country.
Why is PCA CE Certificate Required?
Your boat may not have the CE Certificate because it was manufactured in the past, registered as “commercial” or carrying a foreign flag. However, for the sale of all yachts abroad, the transition to the Turkish flag or the transition from “Commercial” to “Private Boat”, CE Certificate is required.
It is essential to obtain a PCA Certificate in the following cases:
- For the sale of an existing boat abroad
- 2. New or hand a boat on imports into Turkey
- In the change of the boat’s breed; (In the transition from Commercial to Private, from fisherman to tour boat)
- In the change of flag; Transition from foreign flag to Turkish flag
