BCTQ is an MCA appointed Certifying Authority for Small Commercial Vessels. If a British boat is to be used commercially at sea, it is a requirement that it is Small Commercial Vessel (SCV) certified by an MCA Certification Authority. Commercial use broadly means engaged in activities on a commercial basis, even if not for payment, carrying cargo or passengers. Pleasure vessels and club owned boats are excluded from the scope of the Code.
BCTQ is a Certifying Authority in the following codes of practice:
- The safety of Small Commercial Vessels (the "Blue Code")
- The Safety of Small Commercial Vessels (the "Yellow Code")
- The Safety of Small Vessels in Commercial Use for Sport or Pleasure Operating from a Nominated Departure Point (NDP) (the "Red Code")
- The Safety of Small Workboats & Pilot Boats (the "Brown Code")
