During the workshop, delegates were introduced to Vietnam’s current procedures for controlling foreign fishing vessels at ports, as well as international regulations and Australia’s experience in this field. Based on these insights, participants provided input to refine the process in a way that aligns with Vietnam’s specific context. The workshop played a crucial role not only in improving the Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for controlling imported fishery products to combat IUU fishing but also in supporting Vietnam’s efforts to lift the European Commission (EC)’s “Yellow Card” warning.
