We provide health certificates issued by SANIPES (Spanish fishery health authority), certificates of origin, packing lists, commercial invoices and full traceability documentation for every shipment. Specific certificates (HACCP, BRC, etc.) can be arranged on request for customers that require them.

How long is the lead time from order to delivery?

Lead time depends on the species, format, season and destination. Typically 2–4 weeks from contract confirmation to vessel departure.

We provide tracking and ETA updates throughout shipment.
