Do you want to land your catch in a Dutch port and then transport it? You need to register this.

Fish transport

Do you land your catch in a Dutch port? And do you transport your fish abroad or within the Netherlands to sell it? For example: you landed your catch in IJmuiden but want to sell the fish in the United Kingdom. You need to transport the fish. 
You must submit your transport details. Have your identification number ready. For a natural person in the Netherlands, this will be your Burgerservicenummer (BSN). For a company, it will be your KVK number.

You can only complete the transport document online. Find this form on Fish transport.
