Abstract

Forced labor and illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing indications continue to be pervasive in Taiwanese distant water fishing. Recruitment agencies reportedly benefit financially by exploiting migrant fishers. This investigation found clear links between vessels employing those practices and a popular tuna brand in the United States. These findings are revealed in this investigation report, in which Greenpeace Southeast Asia and the Indonesian Migrant Workers Union (SBMI) analyze complaints from Indonesian migrant fishers who worked on Taiwanese-flagged fishing vessels from 2019 to 2024. This report is the third edition in the Seabound series with more highlights on financial exploitation experienced by the fishers. The previous reports, published in 2019 and 2021, found similar issues of forced labor and IUU fishing in distant water fishing.
