The Canadian Fisheries Certificate System (FCS) is designed to issue standard and simplified catch certificates. U.K.
The FCS will be used to issue and to validate a catch certificate for export consignments from Canada to the European Union of conventional fishery products including live, fresh, frozen, salted, canned and/or smoked and dried fish, using raw material from non-vessel fisheries, aboriginal fisheries, or small and large fishing vessels and/or involving production comprising several steps in the production process.
On simplified certificates, Canada will group certain vessels to maximise efficiency. However, the FCS will maintain a complete link to vessels contained in groupings and these vessels are further linked to their license or registration information and the declared catch on the certificate.
The grouping feature will be used for some product forms and, in particular, for fisheries using collector vessels which purchase from several fishing vessels and issue records of sales at sea, for non-vessel fisheries such as beach seine, beach clams, ice fishing, for some inshore fisheries, and for aboriginal fisheries where fisheries may occur at the community level. Groupings will be export company-specific and will be modified for each shipment, as required.
The grouping feature will enable Canada to produce a single certificate per shipment while keeping all the information behind the certificate (vessel license/registration) available in the database.
This information will be available to EU Member States authorities in importing countries through our website or through direct telephone line to our certificate office.
Third parties countries may also contact the certificate office for information on indirect exports.
In accordance with Article 12(4) of Regulation (EC) No 1005/2008, the catch certificate provided for in Article 12 and Annex II to that Regulation shall be replaced — for fisheries products obtained from catches made by fishing vessels flying the Faroese flag — by the Faroese catch certificate based on the Faroese system of sales notes and logbooks which is a traceability system under the control of the Faroese authorities ensuring the same level of control by authorities as required under the EU catch certification scheme.
A specimen of the Faroese catch certificate, which shall replace the European Community Catch Certificates and Re-export Certificate as from 1 January 2010 , is given in the Appendix.
