An essential reason to participate in the prominent Monaco Yacht Show is to discuss, learn and keep up-to-date with fundamental changes in the yachting world. In an attempt to clarify the complex and ever-changing laws surrounding superyachts, PG Legal will host a business breakfast to focus on relevant industry developments. This will take place on the second day of the event, Thursday 25 September.
PG Legal, whose specialist department ‘the Yachting Team’ was launched in 2006 and focuses specifically on corporate and financial aspects of the yacht and shipping world. PG Legal, based in Italy, has an extensive international network of clients and also specializes in insurance, finance, IT and renewable energy sources.
‘Yachting Team’ lawyer Gianfranco Puopolo will give a short presentation at the breakfast discussing various ship and yachting legal issues, including berthing taxes, VAT on luxury yacht charter fees, VAT exemptions and new customs procedures in Italy. The breakfast, held at Restaurant Virage moments away from the show, is an excellent opportunity to gain awareness of changes to Italian yacht laws.
