Santa Catarina state, located in the southern region of Brazil, currently ranks as the second largest production hub of bivalve molluscs in Latin America. In addition, the state is responsible for 95% of the national production of bivalve molluscs. Given the increasing importance gained by industry, this article aims to analyse the actions in Santa Catarina aimed at achieving international standards of control, food quality and safety. For this purpose, were analyzed articles published in reputable journals, manuals, technical documents and Legal requirements set out in both, the national and international legislation of bivalve molluscs. Among these actions, is highlighted the National Hygienic-Sanitary Shellfish Control Plan, PNCMB, created in 2012. The analysis presented in this article was taken through data (15 months) of the environmental parameters of the cultivation waters in the state, provided by CIDASC, the entity responsible for monitoring. With this, could be assessed the current situation of mollusc farming environments in the state their development and trade embargoes. The research findings suggest the most suitable areas for the development of producing molluscs in Santa Catarina, its potential and needs regarding the requirements necessary to carry up international trade in products derived from the cultivation of bivalve molluscs.
