U.S. exports of vessels, excluding scrap (End-Use 22200) totaled $1.3M in July 2026, traded with 31 countries.

Last updated: July 2026 data

Oceangoing ships, barges, tugs, and other watercraft exported from the US — excluding hulks sold for scrapping — are tracked in this end-use category, which reflects US shipyard output and the re-export of foreign-built vessels that have undergone significant repair or modification domestically. The Jones Act (Merchant Marine Act of 1920) shapes the domestic vessel market, but export transactions are governed by EAR and, for certain naval-architecture or propulsion technology, may require BIS review. Vessel identity documentation, including IMO numbers and flag-state registration, is integral to the export filing process.

Frequently Asked Questions

What documentation is required when exporting a vessel from the US?

Exporters must file Electronic Export Information in AES and provide vessel identification details such as the IMO number, flag state, and intended use. If the vessel incorporates controlled technology or propulsion systems, an EAR license determination is required before export. The US Coast Guard may also need to be notified of flag transfers.

How does the Jones Act affect the export classification of US-built vessels?

The Jones Act restricts coastwise trade to US-built, US-flagged vessels but does not prohibit export. However, a US-built vessel sold to a foreign buyer and re-flagged loses its Jones Act eligibility if it later returns to US waters. Trade professionals should advise clients on this restriction when structuring international vessel sales.
