This technical guidance document is a practical guide for developing and implementing electronic catch documentation and traceability (eCDT) systems, principally for marine capture fisheries, that can be aligned to the different capacities, circumstances, and needs of ASEAN member states (AMS). Supported by the Oceans and Fisheries Partnership (USAID Oceans), this guidance aims to facilitate the AMS’ transition from paper-based catch documentation schemes to transparent and financially sustainable eCDT systems.
