Your responsibilities
You can help us to help you by:
- providing your queries to us in writing
- giving us accurate information within a reasonable timeframe
- ensuring that forms and documents are completed fully and in detail
- giving us advance notice of any request for information or assistance so that we can plan to meet your request on time
- treating our staff courteously
When paying licensing and levy fees, we suggest using online banking for convenient electronic funds transfer.
We also recommend taking advantage of AFMA’s online services, including GoFish and Quotaboard to assist fishers in managing their fishing operations.
GOFish is AFMA’s password protected online system for accessing current statements on quota. It enables fishers to transact online and obtain instant online access to their current quota holdings, including full history of quota transactions conducted during the current season. For more information see: www.afma.gov.au/GOFish/default.htm
Quotaboard is an online quota trading classifieds board which allows you to browse or advertise Commonwealth quota, statutory fishing rights (SFRs) or permits to buy, lease or sell. For more information see: www.quotaboard.afma.gov.au
