The Fisheries Department of Belize announced on Friday that the renewal of fishermen’s licenses will be held in January 2022.

The Department says fisherfolk will be given a grace period up to February 4 to get their renewals.

“Fishers are advised to bring along all pertinent documents upon renewal to facilitate the process,” said the Fisheries Department.

These documents include their original expired license; original and copy of Social Security card, passport, or Voter’s ID; a utility bill which if it’s not theirs, should be authorized and signed and sealed by a Justice of the Peace.

The fisher fold license costs $25 and the vessel license also costs $25.

Licenses will all be renewed at the Belize Fisheries Department Office in Belize City except for the Toledo District.
