This service is for applicants who:

  • are ready to submit for their application

Check which marine licence band you need if you are not sure.

Before you start

You will need:

Charges

You will be charged £120 for every hour of the Marine Licensing Team's assessment time.

You will be sent regular invoices.

What happens after you apply

We will:

  • review your application to check it's complete
  • contact you if we need more information
  • confirm by email when we have everything we need to assess it

Because band 3 applications are complex, we cannot give a timeframe for a decision.

We may carry out an early review of your proposed approach, called a 'fitness check'. We will contact you about this if needed.

Submit your application by email

You must submit your completed forms and supporting documents by email to:
permitreceiptcentre@naturalresourceswales.gov.uk

If your files are too big to attach, email to let us know. We will then tell you what to do next.
