What the agency says

This final rule is intended to amend the Coast Guard's requirements for a Certificate of Number (CON) for vessels to allow any CON to be carried in hard copy or digital form. This aligns our current CON requirements with statutory changes made by the James M. Inhofe National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023.
