Operating Under the ZEC Framework

Our legal foundation in the Canary Islands.

What ZEC Means for You

✔ Full Legal Stability

ZEC requires strict adherence to Spanish and EU legislation.
For clients, this means every contract, placement, and operation is handled with integrity, clarity, and regulatory compliance.

✔ Ethical and Transparent Employment

We follow clear Spanish Social Security and Seguridad Social regulations for all employees based in the islands.
Crew and companies benefit from predictable, transparent processes.

✔ European + Local Reach

Based in Tenerife, we coordinate Spanish legal processes, onboarding, and compliance — while our partners in Poland support planning, documentation workflow, and recruitment logistics across Europe.

✔ Strong Operational Standards

To remain in the ZEC, companies must maintain solid financial, administrative, and operational practices.
This ensures reliability and continuity for our clients and crew.

Our Commitment to the Canary Islands

✔ Local Job Creation

We contribute directly to the regional economy by hiring and training staff on the islands — from maritime administration to onboarding and crew support.

✔ Long-Term Presence

Inlandcrew Canarias is built as a permanent base, not a temporary extension.
We are committed to establishing a stable crewing network in the Canary Islands, with long-term vision and responsibility.

✔ Professional Maritime Services

Our Tenerife office acts as the operational and compliance center for Spanish contracts, ZEC obligations, and local crew development.

Inlandcrew Canarias operates under the Zona Especial Canaria (ZEC), a regulated economic framework within the Canary Islands designed to support high-quality, compliant, and internationally focused companies.
Our presence in Tenerife reflects a long-term commitment to building a reliable, modern, and transparent crewing structure within Spain.
