The IOTC, as part of its efforts to combat illegal fishing, reviews information provided by its member states on activities of fishing vessels that could undermine the effectiveness of IOTC's conservation and management measures.
Vessels that are confirmed to have conducted such activities are then listed in the 'List of Vessels Presumed to have conducted illegal, unregulated and unreported fishing', also referred to as the 'IUU list'.
This process of compilation, review and listing, as well as the consequences to the vessels therein listed is described in Resolution 18/03 (adopted in 2018 and superseding Resolution 17/03).
