Fri Nov 18 14:58:00 2022

Next year’s fisheries management fee is now available in the Eräluvat web shop, app and service number +358 20 69 2424, in R-kioski convenience stores and nature centres. The Government decided on Thursday that the fisheries management fee for the entire year will be EUR 47.

The fisheries management fee is obligatory for all fishers aged 18–64 who practice any other type of fishing than ice fishing, hook-and-line fishing or fishing with a simple herring rig. The fee proceeds will be used for fish habitats and fishing activity.

You can now pay the fisheries management fee for 2023 for the entire calendar year. Fees for the current year can also still be redeemed in the web shop and the app. Please pay attention and pay the fee for the correct year.
