Empowering Fisheries and Communities Since 2003

The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Region IV-A (BFAR 4A) is dedicated to promoting sustainable fisheries, protecting aquatic resources, and uplifting the lives of fisherfolk through innovation and technology.

Through systems like EFISHER, we’ve streamlined registration, licensing, and monitoring processes to ensure transparency, accuracy, and efficiency in fisheries management. Our goal is to build a digitally empowered fisheries sector that supports both economic growth and environmental conservation.

With years of service and collaboration with local government units and fisherfolk organizations, BFAR 4A continues to lead in digital transformation and responsible fisheries governance.
