The Ministry of Production (Produce) informed that the Government of Peru will deliver the second artisanal fisherman bonus for the month of September 2023. This economic benefit aims to help this sector of the population that has been affected by the crisis that the country is experiencing.
The head of Produce, Raúl Pérez Reyes, reported that this monetary support would benefit 35,000 fishermen. It was also planned to start delivering the new amount of 700 soles in one month.
"We are going to launch a second bonus for artisanal fishermen of S/700, which we have to approve next month (August). We are considering whether it will be issued as part of an urgent decree or within the framework of the supplementary credit we are going to request," said Pérez to RPP.
Bonus for artisanal fishermen: when will the second subsidy be delivered?
The bonus of 700 soles was supposed to be approved in August 2023, according to Raúl Pérez. However, so far there is no official schedule for collecting the money.
Requirements for the 2023 artisanal fisherman bonus
The first economic subsidy given to fishermen through the programs 'Con punche Perú' and 'Punche Perú productivo' was granted to people who met the following requirements:
- Formally engage in artisanal fishing activity.
- Must be included in the Registry of Beneficiaries of Artisanal Fishermen.
- Not be a beneficiary of other social programs and/or economic subsidies.
Where to collect the artisanal fisherman bonus?
The artisanal fisherman bonus 1 was collected through the windows of Banco de la Nación nationwide with a valid physical ID, so the second bonus will surely be issued in the same way.
Is there a link to check the second artisanal fisherman bonus?
So far, Produce has not announced a link to check the second bonus, however, through the Plataforma Nacional de Satos Abiertos you can find the list of beneficiaries of the 2023 Fisherman Bonus.
