The North Pacific Anadromous Fish Commission is an international inter-governmental organization established in 1993 by the Convention for the Conservation of Anadromous Stocks in the North Pacific Ocean. The primary objective of the commission is to promote the conservation of pacific salmon and steelhead trout in the international waters of the North Pacific and its adjacent seas. Member countries include Canada, Japan, Republic of Korea, Russian Federation and the United States.

To promote conservation and sustainability of anadromous stocks, the commission conducts regular meetings and communications in the areas of fisheries enforcement and scientific research. Member countries cooperate and exchange information on their respective enforcement plans, coordinate patrol scheduling, conduct joint ship patrols and arrange personnel exchanges for air and sea patrols. The member countries also cooperate in collecting, reporting and exchanging biostatistical data, biological samples, fisheries data and organizing scientific communications, such as seminars, workshops, exchanges of scientific personnel and publications.
