What country should I register in?
The beacon must be registered in the country of the owner’s residence. If the
beacon is not programmed to that country’s code and protocol, and the
residence is outside of the USA, the beacon needs to be reprogrammed.
Additionally, the beacon must be reprogrammed if you, as the owner, move out
of the country where the beacon is registered. To verify the country for which a
beacon is programmed, see the label with the UIN (Unique Identification
Number) on the back of the unit.
How do I register?
Registration in the United States
The national authority that accepts registrations in the United States is the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
There are three ways to register:
1. The fastest and easiest way to register is online at
www.beaconregistration.noaa.gov/ .
2. Faxing a registration is also acceptable. Fax the registration form to the
fax number on the top of the registration form.
NOTE: Do not confuse the registration form with the ACR Electronics warranty
card.
3. If online or fax registration is not available, mail the registration form
with the pre-addressed, postage paid envelope to:
Registration NOAA/NESDIS
NSOF, E/SP3
4231 Suitland Road
Suitland, MD 20746
All registration forms will be entered in the 406 MHz beacon registration
database within 48 hours of receipt. The information you provide on the
registration form is used for rescue purposes only.
A confirmation letter, a copy of the actual registration and a proof-of-registration
decal will be mailed to you within two weeks. When you receive these
documents, please check the information carefully, and then affix the decal
to your beacon in the area marked “BEACON DECAL HERE.” It is very
important that the proof of registration decal matches the UIN on the
beacon. If you do not receive confirmation back from NOAA within two weeks,
call toll free (888) 212-7283 for assistance.
