2.2 How to register
Three registration forms are provided, two are for future use and one
must be completed immediately. These forms are pre-printed with your
EPIRB's identity; all you have to do is complete details of your vessel
and provide contact numbers. Wherever possible the forms are also pre-
printed with the correct mailing address and a faxback number. If your
form does not have a mailing address, contact your supplier. When you
have completed the form, you can choose to fax it or mail it.
It is usual to receive confirmation when you register. In the UK and
USA you will also receive a "Decal" sticker which you must fit to the
EPIRB itself. The Decal is proof of registration. Not having a Decal is
an offence.
