Seafood Importation Licensing Scheme

The Seafood Importation Licensing Scheme is a regulatory system designed to ensure the safety and quality of seafood imported into a country. It requires businesses that want to import seafood to obtain a license, ensuring they meet specific health and safety standards. This scheme helps prevent contaminated or harmful seafood from entering the market, protecting consumers and maintaining the integrity of the food supply. By monitoring imports, authorities can trace sources and enforce regulations, promoting sustainable fishing practices and safeguarding public health.
