Use of Fishing Quotas in the Baltic Sea
Taking into account quota exchanges between Lithuanian economic operators and European Union Member States that took place by 9 June 2026, we provide information on the use of fishing quotas for cod, herring, sprat and salmon in the Baltic Sea.
We ask economic operators fishing in the Baltic Sea and coastal waters to monitor the use of their available limits.
Salmon is indicated in units, while other species are indicated in tonnes.
