Why San Marino
San Marino, officially the Republic of San Marino, is a European microstate and a country enclaved by Italy, located on the northeastern side of the Apennine Mountains. It is the fifth-smallest country in the world (a landlocked country), and its northeastern end is within 10 kms of the Italian city of Rimini on the Adriatic Coast.
The country’s economy is mainly based on finance, industry, services, retail, and tourism. It is one of the wealthiest countries in the world in GDP per capita, with a figure comparable to the most developed European regions.
The country kept neutrality during the World War I & II, and it maintains a tranquil, serene, and peaceful attitude as a country in the center of Europe.
The country is developed, and although it is not a European Union member state it is allowed to use the euro as its official currency by arrangement with the Council of the European Union.
The San Marino Ship Register was founded in San Marino in 2019 in order to provide administrative and technical support to the San Marino Maritime Authority, in accordance with the law of maritime navigation reform dated 2 August 2019 Number 120, whereas San Marino became a full Member of the International Maritime Organization in March 2002, and ratified all major IMO conventions and treaties in the process.
