Details

The UK and the EU have agreed to conduct in-year fishing quota transfers. This is set out in the written record of fisheries consultations between the UK and the EU.

Quota transfers will take place on a periodic basis. Your Fisheries Administration (FA) will confirm the dates for each round of transfers.

The tables on this page show the quota transfers agreed between the UK and the EU for the current fishing year.

Read the quota transfers agreed for previous years on the National Archives:

• 2023 fishing year
• 2022 fishing year
• 2021 fishing year
