A worldwide network of nautical chart sales agents are authorized to distribute NOAA nautical charts. Some nautical agents also sell NGA public sale nautical charts covering the entire world.

Agents receive a 40% discount on all of our products, and have return privileges for obsolete charts and publications for full credit. The agent must have a place of business open to the public for over-the-counter sales. The business must net a dollar volume of at least $5000 per year.

The FAA provides the appropriate contracts and instructions to business interested in becoming authorized chart agents. To apply, send your name, address, telephone number and email address to the contact information below.
