This article focuses on the enforcement of security rights over seagoing ships, aircraft, and trains in several international treaties. It contains a largely chronological overview of the relevant international instruments and their scope of application. In addition, this contribution addresses both the conflict-of-laws provisions and the substantive law provisions on the enforcement remedies at the secured creditor's disposal, including procedural aspects of enforcement such as notice requirements, the conditions for a purchaser to obtain ‘clean title’, and de- and reregistration. The comparison of existing rules offers insights for further alignment of the international legal framework for the enforcement of security rights over seagoing ships, aircraft, and trains.
