How often do you have to re-register the PLB with NOAA?

• A. Monthly
• B. Every 5 years
• C. Never
• D. Biennially

Answer: (D)

A PLB registration with NOAA needs to be renewed every two years. This keeps the owner’s contact information current so rescue authorities can reach the right person if the beacon is activated. You should re-register at the two-year interval, and update any ownership or contact details as they change. So, biennially is the correct frequency.
