reflagging
Switching national registration
Reflagging is registering a ship under a different country's flag, changing its national registry.
Ships may be reflagged to avoid regulations, reduce taxes, or gain legal protections: The tankers were reflagged to allow U.S. Navy escorts.
The term extends to any rebranding that changes nominal ownership or identity while keeping the underlying entity intact.
