EFTTA AISBL informs: Following Brexit and the closure of EFTTA Ltd. & EFTTEX Ltd. in England in 2021, EFTTA AISBL was established in Brussels, Belgium in early 2022.

Since then, times have become ever more challenging for the future of recreational angling within Europe. Threats come from multiple sides and the list of tasks for EFTTA AISBL is long. EFTTA AISBL has been established as a registered Nonprofit Association (EFTTA AISBL – Association Internationale Sans But Lucratif). EFTTA AISBL membership fees are entirely dedicated to finance our lobbying work in Brussels. This important role is time consuming, and demands our full attention.

In 2022, EFTTEX Kft. was founded in Hungary as an independant, privatly owned company to organize the EFTTEX Show. For the sake of clarity and good order we highlight that EFTTA AISBL has no shares within EFTTEX Kft. and there is no legal or operational connection between EFTTA AISBL and EFTTEX Kft.

EFTTEX Kft. is solely responsible for the organization and execution of EFTTEX 2022 and EFTTEX 2023 and is run and operated totally independently of EFTTA AISBL. On behalf of EFTTA AISBL and the board of directors we emphasize that EFTTA AISBL is not the organizer of EFTTEX 2022 and EFTTEX 2023 and that EFTTEX 2022 and EFTTEX 2023 is not being run for or on behalf of EFTTA AISBL. Membership in EFTTA is no longer a condition of participation in EFTTEX.
