As of June 9, 2024, Taiwan's Pacific bluefin tuna catch has reached 90% of this year's quota, prompting the Ministry of Agriculture to announce the halt of Pacific bluefin tuna fishing starting from midnight on June 12. This measure is in accordance with the rules of the Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC) to ensure sustainable use of tuna resources. Fishermen are reminded to comply with reporting requirements for catches made before the ban, with severe penalties for violations. Compliance is crucial for Taiwan to continue fishing bluefin tuna and maintain sustainable resource use.
