The Importance of Having a Shrimp Cultivation Business Permit 

Fishery Business License (SIUP) is a written permit that must be owned by a fishing company to conduct business using the production facilities listed in the permit. This SIUP is valid as long as you carry out fishery business activities. The permit letter is a form of assurance that as a cultivator, you have met good cultivation standards, preserved nature, and maintained harmony with the social environment, and complied with applicable laws.

Apart from the fact that SIUP for shrimp ponds is mandatory for every shrimp farming business actor, SIUP also has its own benefits for you as an entrepreneur. Shrimp farming businesses that already have SIUP will get legal protection from the government. SIUP can also make it easier for you when you want to open a bank account and apply for a business loan. Apart from that, SIUP is sometimes also used as one of the conditions needed if your company participates in a tender. Finally, SIUP can make the shrimp farming business have credibility so that it can increase the trust of partners and consumers.

Adjusting the law on pond licensing, farmers who do not have a SIUP will not have legal protection, will not be able to develop their business, it will be difficult to get financial assistance, and their credibility will be doubted. In addition, your shrimp farming business can also be subject to sanctions in the form of fines in accordance with applicable regulations.

Types of Shrimp Pond Business Licensing 

Before simplifying, there are 21 types of permits that you must have before starting a shrimp farming business. The 21 types of permits involving 21 ministries and institutions in the manufacturing process. However, since 2020, the Minister of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, Edhy Prabowo, has emphasized that it is sufficient for shrimp cultivation permits to be carried out through only 1 door, namely through the BKPM (Investment Coordinating Board).

Cultivation permits that are carried out through 1 gate are called OSS (Online Single Submission). The OSS system aims to make it easier for business actors to start their business by simplifying licensing. Licensing simplification was carried out by cutting several procedures that were too complex and convoluted. In managing business licenses, OSS has been integrated with several ministries, institutions, agencies, and local governments. Want to know the terms and procedures for submitting SIUP through OSS?
