You sell yachts and manage fleets. We sell visibility.

FuelEU Maritime requires every vessel calling at EU ports to report GHG intensity data and carry a Document of Compliance. The final DoC comes from an accredited verifier — DNV, Lloyd's, RINA. We do not replace them.

What we do is eliminate the weeks of scrambling to get your fuel logs, voyage data, and emissions calculations into verifier-ready format. Your compliance officer opens The Yacht Vault, and everything is already there.

per tonne of CO₂ equivalent, per vessel, per year.

A 60-metre yacht burning 500 tonnes of VLSFO annually faces an estimated €50,000+ in carbon penalties under FuelEU Maritime. Multiply that across a fleet of 10 vessels, and you are looking at half a million euros in avoidable fines. The regulation is not coming. It is here.

Common questions.

Do you issue the Document of Compliance?

No. The DoC is issued by an accredited verifier — DNV, Lloyd's, RINA, or Bureau Veritas. We prepare all the data and documentation they need, so the verification process takes hours instead of weeks.

What data do you need from us?

Fuel logs, bunker delivery notes (BDNs), and voyage records. If you track fuel consumption in any format — spreadsheets, management software, paper logs — we can work with it.

How much are the penalties, really?

FuelEU Maritime sets the penalty at €2,400 per tonne of VLSFO equivalent for non-compliance. The effective carbon cost works out to approximately €645 per tonne of CO₂. For a typical 60m yacht, expect €30,000–€80,000 annually depending on usage.

Is the compliance audit really free?

Yes. The audit gives you a clear picture of your FuelEU exposure. If you want ongoing monitoring and verifier-ready reporting, we offer a paid service — but there is no obligation from the audit.

We manage 20+ vessels. Can you handle fleet-wide reporting?

That is exactly what we are built for. Fleet managers get a consolidated dashboard showing per-vessel and portfolio-level penalty exposure, with bulk export for verifier submission.

How is our data handled?

All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. We operate under strict confidentiality — vessel identities, ownership structures, and voyage data are never shared with third parties beyond your chosen verifier.

The regulation is here. The question is whether you are ready for it.
