Fishery Notice

2015/2016 Groundfish Trawl, Halibut, Sablefish, Rockfish, and Schedule II Other 
Species licence fees will be available for payment commencing February 20, 2015 
in the Pacific Region through the National Online Licensing System. 

Harvesters will use the National Online Licensing System (NOLS) to go online to 
view, pay for and print their commercial fishing licences, licence conditions, 
and/or receipts.

As the need to submit an applicable form is no longer necessary, where a 
designated vessel or option is required, licence eligibility holders may submit 
the required information via the 'Submit a Request' menu selection within the 
National Online Licensing System (NOLS). Full instructions are available at: 
http://www.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/fm-gp/sdc-cps/products-produits/request-demande-
eng.htm).

The applicable forms will be sent to licence eligibility holders and groundfish 
by trawl vessel owners by mail and the payment required to be processed through 
the National Online Licensing System. 

A reminder that all licence renewal fee payments must be made through the 
NOLS.  

For communal commercial licences, even though the fees are $0.00, clients are  
required to add a checkmark beside the licence(s) to renew, and 
click "Checkout" through NOLS.    

To avoid delays, please ensure the payment and option information is submitted 
to DFO at the same time.  

Upon the Department receiving the required payment, applicable documentation 
and information, the licence will be issued and notification will be sent via 
email to advise Licence Holders/vessel owners that a change has been made to 
the licence holder's online account.  The licence documents, licence conditions 
and receipt will be available to be printed at that time.  


Client support will be available via e-mail (fishing-peche@dfo-mpo.gc.ca) or 
toll-free telephone (1-877-535-7307).  

For transactions that are not yet available in the National Online Licensing 
System (e.g. Vessel replacements and nominations), licensing services will 
continue to be available either through telephone (1-877-535-7307), e-mail 
(fishing-peche@dfo-mpo.gc.ca), or fax (604-666-5855).   Please be sure to visit
