Evidence Scorecard
Three lenses — wording, timing, documented link. Not a single proof score.
Computed with intfloat/multilingual-e5-small multilingual embeddings. Display score is a calibrated mapping of the raw cross-lingual cosine (0.817); higher means closer meaning. Reflects semantic similarity, not proof of causation.

대한민국은 「원양산업발전법」(소관: 해양수산부)을 통해 PSMA의 항만국조치 의무를 국내에 이행한다. 2013년 11월 26일 EU가 한국을 IUU 어업 비협조 가능 제3국(예비 IUU 어업국, '황색경고')으로 지정하고 미국도 IUU 어업국으로 지정하자, 한국은 동 법을 대폭 개정하여 모니터링·통제·감시(MCS) 역량, 항만 검색·양륙 제한, 옵서버, 위반 제재를 강화했고 이를 근거로 2015년 4월 EU 지정에서 해제('녹색카드')되었다.
국가법령정보센터 · 원양산업발전법 (법률 제16645호, 2019.11.26. 공포 / 2020.11.27. 시행) — 대한민국은 「원양산업발전법」(소관: 해양수산부)을 통해 PSMA의 항만국조치 의무를 국내에 이행한다. 2013년 11월 26일 EU가 한국을 IUU 어업 비협조 가능 제3국(예비 IUU 어업국, '황색경고')으로 지정하고 미국도 IUU 어업국으로 지정하자, 한국은 동 법을 대폭 개정하여 모니터링·통제·감시(MCS) 역량, 항만 검색·양륙 제한, 옵서버, 위반 제재를 강화했고 이를 근거로 2015년 4월 EU 지정에서 해제('녹색카드')되었다.

Primary source
The FAO Agreement on Port State Measures① to Prevent, Deter and Eliminate Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing② (PSMA) was adopted by the FAO Conference at its 36th Session in Rome on 22 November 2009 (Resolution 12/2009) and entered into force on 5 June 2016 — the first binding international treaty specifically targeting IUU fishing. It applies to foreign fishing vessels seeking entry into a State's designated port③s and obliges port States to deny entry, inspect, and refuse landing/transhipment services to vessels implicated in IUU fishing, thereby blocking illegally caught fish from reaching markets. The Republic of Korea is a Party to the PSMA (listed as Party No. 59 on FAO's official parties register).
대한민국은 「원양산업①발전법」(소관: 해양수산부)을 통해 PSMA의 항만③국조치 의무를 국내에 이행한다. 2013년 11월 26일 EU가 한국을 IUU 어업② 비협조 가능 제3국(예비 IUU 어업국, '황색경고')으로 지정하고 미국도 IUU 어업국으로 지정하자, 한국은 동 법을 대폭 개정하여 모니터링·통제·감시(MCS) 역량, 항만 검색·양륙 제한, 옵서버, 위반 제재를 강화했고 이를 근거로 2015년 4월 EU 지정에서 해제('녹색카드')되었다. 이후 법률 제16645호 일부개정법률이 2019년 11월 26일 공포(2020년 11월 27일 시행)되어, 허가 없이 원양어업에 종사한 자 등에 대한 과징금(課徵金) 제도(제31조의2 신설)를 도입하고 PSMA 주요 규정을 국내 항만국조치 고시에 전면 반영하여 검색 대상을 어획물 적재 여부와 무관하게 국내 입항 모든 선박으로 확대했다.
