MUTUAL ASSISTANCE U.K.

Mutual assistance pursuant to Article 51 of Regulation (EC) No 1005/2008 shall be developed to facilitate the exchange of information and administrative cooperation between respective competent authorities in Canada and Member States of the European Union, based on detailed rules on mutual assistance laid down in Commission Regulation (EC) No 1010/2009.

Appendix 1 U.K.
Appendix 2 U.K.
Appendix 3 U.K.

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.
