(a) Any instrument identified as eligible for filing and recording under § 67.200 may be submitted using electronic filing. The method(s) or address(es) to be used for electronic filing may be obtained from the National Vessel Documentation Center's website.

(b) If the filing of any instrument is terminated for any cause under § 67.217(a), the instrument will be returned to the submitter.
