European Commission Seeks Views on Mutual Recognition of Private Boater Licences

25th March 2024

The European Commission is surveying industry and private boat owners regarding the mutual recognition of private boater licences.

Consultancy firm Panteia is collaborating with the Commission on a study to determine the advantages and drawbacks of recognising licenses and qualifications for private boaters across Europe.

Panteia has developed two surveys: one tailored for industry and one for the general public. The average response time for both surveys is five minutes.

These surveys aim to collect qualitative feedback and quantitative data to gain a comprehensive understanding of the current landscape of license recognition. Responses are requested by Wednesday 10 April.
