Registration and certification

Registering vessels in the database through filling out the questionnaire ("self-assessment") is free of charge. After the vessels have received a CSI Class, you can choose to certify the vessel in order to access benefits such as reduced fairway dues in Sweden or reduced port fees in different countries.

The process for registration and certification:

1. Request a login to the database via info@cleanshippingindex.com. When received, fill out the questionnaire ("self assessment") for each vessel.
2. Your vessels will receive CSI Class 1-5 and you can now choose to certify your vessel, in order to access benefits, through asking accredited verification companies for quotes.
3. When the certification is done, a digital certificate (3 years validity) is available for download in the database and will be synced with the Swedish Maritime Administration within 24h.
