Accreditation & Quality Verification
Marine surveying is an unregulated title in the United States, meaning anyone can advertise as a marine surveyor without credentials. However, marine insurance underwriters, lenders, and maritime attorneys almost universally require surveys conducted by accredited professionals holding SAMS AMS® (Society of Accredited Marine Surveyors) or NAMS-CMS (National Association of Marine Surveyors) status.
