Bus/Financial - Fisheries / Zölle für Schiffseigner
English term or phrase: private duties
The owners also consider that the private duties are too high in relation to the actual catch potential available to them.

Ich bräuchte die Fachübersetzung für 'private duties' und gehe davon aus, dass wohl eine bestimmte Art Zoll oder Steuer gemeint ist, die die Besitzer von Travlern entrichten müssen, damit sie (in den Gewässern Mauretaniens) fischen dürfen.

'Privatzoll' scheint eher eine historische Bedeutung zu haben...

Explanation:
I think I would opt quite simply for 'Gebühren' here - the owners are not the government, so 'Zoll' and 'Steuer' both seem a little too formal

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thank you very much for this proposal. In the end, I went for a translation in the sense of 'private obligations', although I like 'private Gebühren' as well...
