ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISES LTD. is a registered legal entity registered in United States under 602203913, and its current status with Washington Secretary of State is active. The company was incorporated on 31 January 2006 and lists its registered address as MIAMI, United States. 5 shareholders are on record for ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISES LTD., and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Washington Secretary of State and was last updated on 22 September 2026.

Shareholders

5

Five shareholders are currently on record for ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISES LTD., reflecting the stock ledger maintained under state corporate law (e.g. §219 of the Delaware General Corporation Law) rather than a public filing.

The largest of these is WASHINGTON MUTUAL INVESTORS FUND, holding 4.5% — the largest recorded stake — followed by WASHINGTON MUTUAL INVESTORS FUND at 4.5%; the remaining 3 shareholders shown hold smaller stakes.

The register reports 9 shareholders in total, though only the top 5 by holding are shown in this view.

Because every shareholder shown is a company rather than an individual, the ownership chain continues above this level, and no beneficial owner can be established from this filing alone.

The Governingperson of ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISES LTD. on record is STEPHEN HOWE; 5 officers are shown here, filed with Washington Secretary of State.

The register reports 22 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.

Management authority at ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISES LTD. sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control.

The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.

Group Structure

ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISES LTD. has no recorded parent company — it sits at the top of its own group structure, with 29 subsidiaries recorded beneath it across 12 jurisdictions. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.

Those 29 subsidiaries span United States, Mexico, Liberia, Finland, Germany, The Bahamas, and 6 more jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. Seven of the 29 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
