No vessel may fish for squid between 00:00 UTC on 1 January to 24:00 UTC on 30 June.

Between 1 July to 31 December, during a maximum 2-week exemption period, up to a total of three hauls in which any other species for which this Regulation establishes fishing opportunities in the NAFO Convention area and other than squid comprises the largest percentage by weight of the total catch in the haul shall not be considered a directed fishery, provided that the fishing vessel carries on board a control observer, uses a mesh size no smaller than 60mm, and complies with the NAFO notification and reporting requirements to make use of that 2-week exemption period. After each such haul, the fishing vessel shall immediately move a minimum of 10 nautical miles from any position of the previous haul throughout the subsequent haul.

This quantity is available to Canada and the Member States except Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland. Catches to be counted against this shared quota shall be reported separately (SQI/N34_AMS).

This annual TAC is only for exploratory fisheries, as defined in Article 4, point 11, of Regulation (EU) 2018/975 of the European Parliament and of the Council. Fishing shall be limited to depths between 600 m and 2 500  m. Fishing shall be limited to one trip of a maximum duration of 60 consecutive days which may occur any time between 1 May and 15 November 2025. All fishing shall cease immediately if the death of the following occurs: (a) one of any of the following species: wandering albatross (Diomedea exulans), grey-headed albatross (Thalassarche chrysostoma), black-browed albatross (Thalassarche melanophris), grey petrel (Procellaria cinerea), soft-plumaged petrel (Pterodroma mollis); or (b) three individuals of any of the following species: light-mantled albatross (Phoebetria palpebrata), southern giant petrel (Macronectes giganteus) and northern giant petrel (Macronectes halli*).

Fishing shall further be limited to a maximum number of 5 000 hooks per set, with a maximum of 100 sets. Longlines shall be set at least 3 nautical miles apart from each other, and not set at previous longline locations within one calendar year. Fishing shall cease either when the TAC is reached or if 100 sets have been set and hauled during the trip, whichever is earlier. *  Regulation (EU) 2018/975 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 4 July 2018 laying down management, conservation and control measures applicable in the South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO) Convention Area (OJ L 179, 16.7.2018, p. 30, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2018/975/oj).

Of which up to 129 tonnes may be fished in research block A. As the catch limit for research block A is approached, shorter lines shall be set to ensure that the catch limit is not exceeded. Catches of toothfishes in research block A shall be reported separately (TOT/SPR-A).

Of which up to 33 tonnes may be fished in research block B. As the catch limit for research block B is approached, shorter lines shall be set to ensure that the catch limit is not exceeded. Catches of toothfishes in research block B shall be reported separately (TOT/SPR-B).
