Application for Federal Fisheries Permit (FFP)
This form may be used to apply for Alaska Federal Fisheries Permits (FFP). A FFP permit is required for U.S. vessels which are used to fish for groundfish in the Gulf of Alaska or Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands. This permit is also required for vessels used to fish for any non-groundfish species and that are required to retain any bycatch of groundfish under 50 CFR 679.4(b).
