Registration
It is a legal requirement to register your EPIRB with your national authority. Failure to do
so may result in prosecution. Accurate registration will help the authorities if your EPIRB
is activated and may speed up your rescue.
To register your beacon, contact your national registration authority via post, email or
online. Provide your 15 digit HEX ID (UIN), 5 digit checksum if required, your contact
details and emergency contact information. Some countries also require additional
information such as boat type and identification or alternative emergency contacts.
For UK registrations go to:
www.gov.uk/406beacon
For USA registrations go to:
www.beaconregistration.noaa.gov/
Details of other authorities may be found at www.406registration.com.
It is important to make sure that registration details are kept up to date and that the
authority is advised of change of ownership or disposal of your EPIRB.
