UKFMC: E-LOG reporting requirements when landing to multiple factories and multiple ports in Norway

Scottish pelagic vessels landing catches to more than one Norwegian port are requested by the Norwegian authorities to respect the Estimated Time of Arrival notified in their PSC1 form. If the master of the vessel wishes to enter port in advance of that ETA, they require to submit a written request to the Norwegian FMC  fmc@fiskeridir.no .

Inspectors at the intended port of landing will be informed and they will ultimately determine whether the vessel can enter port early or not.

We would also take this opportunity to reiterate to masters the reporting requirements associated with landing to more than one factory and or multiple Norwegian ports.
