  • A valid licence amendment must be issued by the Groundfish Management Unit and must be onboard while the vessel is engagedin fishing activities.
  • Requests can be processed only if both licenses involved are valid for the current fishing season.

  • IVQ that has already been caught and deemed “fished” cannot be reallocated.
