Landing Reports and Registered Buyer Permits
Landing Reports
Registered Buyers may report IFQ halibut/sablefish landings and CDQ halibut landings. There are two landings web sites on which a registered buyer or fisherman can:
- eLandings. Make landings for IFQ/CDQ crab, halibut and sablefish IFQ, and groundfish
- IFQ/CDQ Web Applications. Report a landing; check a vessel balance; print a receipt for a previous landing; make an ex-vessel volume and value report; renew an annual registered buyer permit; pay cost-recovery fees; print a landing ledger report; check a permit balance; change a password. NOTE: The landings feature of this web application is to be phased out and replaced by the eLandings web application.
To make landing reports online, using the NMFS IFQ/CDQ web application (not eLandings), registered buyers must have a NMFS ID and password issued by RAM. To obtain a NMFS ID and/or password, please contact RAM.

Registered Buyer Permits
A Registered Buyer permit is required for any person who receives IFQ halibut or sablefish or CDQ halibut from the person that harvested the fish. The permit is also required of any person who harvests IFQ halibut or sablefish or CDQ halibut and transfers such fish in a dockside sale, outside of an IFQ regulatory area, or outside of the State of Alaska. Permits are non-transferable, issued annually, on request, and at no cost. The permit is authorized at 50 CFR Parts 679.4(d) and 679.5(L).
