To obtain a registration of a vessel design, the applicant or the applicant's duly appointed agent or representative must certify the declaration in space 9. It is not necessary to have the declaration provided in space 9 notarized.

For information regarding the placement of the notice, see Section 1309.4. If a distinctive identification of the owner has been recorded with the U.S. Copyright Office and is used instead of the design notice, the applicant should disclose this information in space 9.
