The charges for applying to join the scheme are shown in the table below. All costs are in Pounds Sterling (£). Any alterations required after invoices have been submitted will incur a £75 administration fee.

Increases in these fees have largely been driven by inflation, along with the growth of the MarinTrust program, and will ensure that we continue to maintain our high levels of assurance, while driving continuous improvement and meet growing market demands.
