What is ISO 13443:2011?
ISO 13443:2011 is an international standard that specifies vocabulary, principles, and classifications used in the field of fisheries and aquaculture. It provides a standardized reference for terminology and coding of fishery and aquaculture activities, particularly for statistical and data collection purposes. ISO 13443 helps in harmonizing reporting and record-keeping across fisheries, ensuring consistency, traceability, and international understanding. It is essential for fisheries research institutions, regulatory bodies, and seafood industry players working in global supply chains.

ISO 13443 – Overview
ISO 13443 is a specialized standard designed to support information management in the fisheries and aquaculture sector. It defines codes for gear types, species, fishing methods, vessel activity, and location identifiers. These codes and terminologies are crucial for governments, research agencies, and companies engaged in marine resource monitoring, policy-making, and sustainable seafood trade. By implementing ISO 13443, organizations can align with international reporting protocols and enhance the quality of fishery statistics and traceability systems.
