Abstract

The Act applies to commercial and leisure fishing in Greenland. By establishing annual total allowable catch for certain species, the Act ensures an appropriate and biologically sound exploitation of fish stocks. Individuals authorized to fish are subject to residence and tax paying status in Greenland, as well as having been engaged in commercial fishing in the preceeding two calendar years with at least 2/3 of their gross income derived from commercial fishing. For commercial companies, at least 2/3 of their capital must derive from shrimp fishery: the entire share capital must be owned by individuals who meet the above-mentioned conditions and more than half of company capital must be owned by tax paying commercial fishermen. These restrictions may however change on the basis of authorities’ discretion. Nationals from countries other than Denmark but who reside in Greenland for 2 consecutive years, enjoy same rights as Danish citizens.
