Application for Tonnage Measurement
of Vessels

OMB No. 1625-0022

Exp: 12/31/2017


Who must comply?

Owners of vessels.

What is this collection about?

The information is used by the Coast Guard (CG) to establish a vessel’s tonnage. Tonnage—needed before a vessel is documented as a vessel of the United States and to apply laws of the United States —is used to determine licensing, inspection, safety requirements, and operating fees.

Where do I find the requirements for this information?

Title 46 CFR Part 69 is available at—https://www.eCFR.gov, select TITLE 46 – SHIPPING, and follow to the part.

When must information be submitted to the Coast Guard?

The information is submitted to the CG or a measurement organization authorized by the CG Marine Safety Center (MSC) before a vessel is documented, or if a law of the United States applies based on tonnage.

How is the information submitted?

For an owner seeking measurement using the simplified measurement system, fill out the information on the Application for Simplified Measurement form (CG-5397) and submit it by mail, fax or electronically via e-mail to the National Vessel Documentation Center (NVDC). The form is available at— http://www.dco.uscg.mil/msc/Tonnage-Division/. The NVDC e-mail is [email protected]. Contact details for the NVDC are below.

For an owner seeking measurement using a formal measurement system, send vessel plans and other information to a measurement organization by mail, fax or electronically. Contact details for these organizations are obtained through the MSC, as indicated below.

What happens when complete information is received?

The CG or an authorized measurement organization will review the information, determine the tonnage of a vessel, and reply in writing.

For additional information, contact--

The NVDC, or the MSC


An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB control number.

The Coast Guard estimates that the average burden per response for this report varies per information collection—about 2 hours for the simplified measurement system; and about 5 hours for the formal measurement system. You may submit any comments concerning the accuracy of this burden estimate or any suggestions for reducing the burden to: Commanding Officer (MSC), Attn: Marine Safety Center, US Coast Guard Stop 7430, 2703 Martin Luther King Jr. Ave SE, Washington, DC 20593-7430 or Office of Management and Budget, Paperwork Reduction Project (1625-0022), Washington, DC 20503.
