The Department of Fisheries and Marine Research of the Ministry of Agriculture, Rural Development and Environment announces that applications for recreational fishing permits - by boat and snorkel - can now be made ONLY through the relevant online platform. For the recreational fishing licence in water reservoirs the procedure remains the same as in previous years.
Through the platform, any interested party can apply by filling in their details electronically and attaching the relevant documents requested. Subsequently, his/her application will be examined and the applicant will receive an e-mail and a message (sms) of approval/rejection of his/her application. Subsequently, he/she will be able to pay his/her license electronically through JCC and print or save it.
It is also reminded that in case a person owns a registered fishing vessel, he/she must declare the details of the vessel on the platform to be entitled to engage in recreational fishing with that vessel.
The electronic address of the platform is https:/licence.dfmr.moa.gov.cy and is also available on the website of the Department of Fisheries and Marine Research www.moa.gov.cy/dfmr.
The implementation of the above service is part of our effort for direct service to the citizen and in the implementation of the government policy for e-government and for the collection of data related to European Fisheries Regulations.
