- Title:
- File 6/20 Bahrain Country Crafts registered at Customs - Certificates Countersigned by Political Agent
- Scope & Content:
-
The file contains correspondence relating to the registration of boats in Bahrain. The vast majority of the papers are covering letters that were originally sent with registration certificates by the Director of Customs to the Political Agency for counter-signing. The certificates were then returned by the Agency. The certificates were required by all craft intending to leave Bahrain waters. The practice ceased in January 1933.
The file also contains some correspondence about the usefulness of the procedure, mostly between the Adviser to the Government of Bahrain (Charles Dalrymple Belgrave), the Political Agency in Bahrain, the Political Residency in the Persian Gulf, and the Government of India (Foreign and Political Department).
Towards the back of the file is later correspondence relating to an incident involving the confiscation of registration certificates by Iranian port officials and a request to register a new tug boat from the Bahrain Petroleum Company (BAPCO).
Folio 189 is internal office notes.
