Indonesia has taken a groundbreaking step by upgrading its national seafood traceability system, Stelina, to be compatible with the Global Dialogue on Seafood Traceability Standard

Reportedly the first country in the world to do so, this achievement reflects Indonesia’s leadership in adopting technology to support responsible fisheries management, working alongside stakeholders such as the Indonesian Pole & Line and Handline Fisheries Association.

By upgrading Stelina to align with the GDST Standard, Indonesia can now enable data sharing between seafood businesses and government, ensuring sustainability and compliance with international trade standards.
