During the Transfer Ownership process you will be prompted to enter the
SMART User Name and password of the current holder of the callsign you are
attempting to transfer.
We may, with agreement of the previous vessel owner, release the callsign
for allocation to the new owner of the vessel. We determine this authority
with the User Name and password of the existing holder of the callsign. If
you are the new owner, you will need to obtain this User Name and password from the
previous owner to prove you are the new owner.
As an alternative method of transferring a callsign, the previous vessel
owner may firstly release the callsign,
making it freely available for you to
register (you can
specify this callsign as your first choice during the
application
process).
If the previous vessel owner is unable to supply his/her SMART User Name and
password, support is available in order to retrieve
it.
