BIM conducts an annual survey in which all active vessels are requested to submit economic, employment and operational details for their previous year’s activity. The survey asks a series of questions about the financial and operational performance of fishing vessels and the demographics of the crew. The findings of the survey provide key data and insights into the status of Ireland’s fishing sector on an annual basis. The returns form the basis for the justification of national and EU grant aid programmes, focused on supporting the industry and coastal communities. The findings of last year’s surveys can be accessed here

The vessel owner completes the first section (i.e., vessel and crew questions). Once this first section is complete, you have the option to complete the second section (i.e., income, expenditure, assets etc.) yourself or nominate an accountant or bookkeeper to complete it. BIM will send them a request to register and a link to access their part of the survey.
