What this is
The certificate of non-encumbrance (often equated to a certificate of non-pledge or legal status) is an official document issued by the competent authority certifying that a vessel is free from any registered mortgage, seizure, maritime debt, or judicial encumbrance. It assures any potential buyer or creditor of transparency regarding the vessel's legal and financial status at the time of the transaction.
