All Bahraini fishermen will be required to obtain an official licence to practise commercial fishing starting from Thursday as part of measures to ensure the sustainability of marine resources.
The Supreme Council for Environment (SCE) stated that the new requirement is mandatory for all commercial fishermen in the country, and urged them to apply for one as soon as possible.
The council added that this was part of its commitment to strengthen the commercial fishing sector in ways that ensure the sustainability of marine wealth, preserve natural resources and support Bahrain’s food security in line with the Sustainable Development Goals.
