scope:

This International Standard specifies the information to be recorded in marine-captured finfish supply chains in order to establish the traceability of products originating from captured finfish. It specifies how traded fishery products are to be identified, and the information to be generated and held on those products by each of the food businesses that physically trade them through the distribution chains. It is specific to the distribution for human consumption of marine-captured finfish and their products, from catch through to retailers or caterers.

NOTE Together with ISO 12877 for farmed finfish, this international Standard provides a basis for implementing chain traceability of finfish.
