Looking to enter Monaco, Nice, Cannes, Saint-Tropez, the French Riviera or anywhere across the Mediterranean with your yacht? Every arrival requires a complete set of yacht clearance documents. Submitting them on time ensures smooth entry and avoids costly delays.
At YachtClear, we make this process effortless. You simply submit your documents online — and we handle the full clearance preparation for you.
Once you submit, our team prepares your clearance file and coordinates with the appropriate port/agent so your entry is smooth, online, fast, and secure.
These are required for all private yachts entering Mediterranean ports:
