<![CDATA[The licensing provisions in fisheries business activities, namely the Fisheries Business License (SIUP), Fishing License (SIPI), and Fish Transport Vessel License (SIKPI), are state control instruments for the orderly and sustainable utilization of fish resources. Violations of the obligation to own these permits are not merely administrative in nature, but are categorized as criminal acts in the fisheries sector as regulated in Law Number 31 of 2004 concerning Fisheries as amended by Law Number 45 of 2009. This article aims to analyze the regulation of SIPI, SIKPI, and SIUP according to Law Number 45 of 2009 and their legal enforcement, by taking a case study of Decision Number 72/Pid.Sus-Prk/2024/PN.Rkb. This research uses a normative legal research method with a legislative approach, a case approach, and a conceptual approach. The research results show that the regulation of SIUP, SIPI, and SIKPI has a clear legal basis but has undergone adjustments to norms after the implementation of the risk-based licensing policy through the Online Single Submission system, without eliminating the criminal nature of violations for large-scale business actors. Law enforcement in the field is still hampered by overlapping authority between institutions, limited supervisory facilities, difficulties in proving on the high seas, and disparities between sanctions and economic benefits for perpetrators, resulting in less than optimal deterrence. Strengthening of technology-based supervisory systems, institutional synergy, and a proportional legal approach between the ultimum remedium function for small-scale fishermen and firm action against large business actors and foreign vessels are needed]]>
