Permits For Sale

Ocean Marine offers commercial fishing permits and licenses for sale, including Gulf of Mexico fishing permits, federal vessel documentation, and state fishing licenses. Fishing permits can carry significant value depending on species, area, and quota allocations.

Commercial fishing permits are regulated by NOAA Fisheries and individual state agencies, with different programs covering species such as reef fish, shrimp, highly migratory species, and various state-managed fisheries. Some permits carry significant market value due to limited-entry programs that cap the number of active permits in a given fishery. Transferring permits typically requires documentation review, application processing, and in some cases approval from a regional fishery management council.

Our brokers have experience facilitating fishing permit transactions and can advise buyers and sellers on the transfer process and current market valuations. Contact us to discuss available permits, species coverage, area restrictions, and current permit market conditions.
