About FishOnline
FishOnline is the department's web based system for administering commercially related fishing activity. The system is used for all business related transactions and catch and effort reporting.
The platform allows for customers to use the system themselves. FisherDirect and FisherMobile are the components of the system that have been developed to accommodate self-service at any time of the day or night. FisherDirect and FisherMobile are progressively being rolled out with functionality growing over time in line with identified needs related to administration and management.
What's new
Digital authorities are now available via the FisherMobile app giving commercial fishers the option to have their commercial fishing licence and fishing business endorsements downloaded to their smart phone or tablet instead of being issued plastic cards. (Note: Fishing boat licences are not provided for digitally).
Digital authorities provide you with real time access to your commercial fishing authority information via your smart phone or tablet. If a change is made to available endorsements or if nominations change receiving the revised authorities is immediate - no waiting for plastic cards to arrive.
If you are interested in finding out more about digital authorities refer to the Digital Authorities Information Sheet (PDF, 358.64 KB).
Things you need to know:
- FisherMobile is a smartphone or tablet app which is only available to commercial fishing licence holders and authorised fishers.
- You need to register for a FisherMobile account – Form FOL 5 FisherMobile Account Application (PDF, 64.31 KB) (if you have not done so already).
- You need to opt in to holding your authorities digitally – Form FOL 6 Digital Authority Account Application (PDF, 85.31 KB)
- You cannot have both the digital authority and the plastic card versions. If you opt in for the digital authorities plastic cards will not be issued and existing ones cancelled.
To receive your digital authorities fully complete the required application forms and either fax to: (02) 4424 7449; or email to: fishonline.support@dpi.nsw.gov.au, or post to: LMB 3020, NOWRA NSW 2541
