The marine sustainable development goal (SDG 14), as an important part of the 2030 United Nations Sustainable Development Goal system (SDGs), provides a comprehensive framework for solving problems related to marine environment and socio-economic development at the national level. Since 2016, the specific targets and indicators of SDG 14 have been constantly developing and changing. China faces both opportunities and challenges in implementing the specific indicators of SDG 14. On the one hand, there are realistic gaps and limitations in evaluating the progress of China using the UN SDG 14 indicator framework; on the other hand, the voluntary national assessment indicator framework of SDG 14 in China needs to be further improved. Finally, this study suggests that the evaluation index and method system of SDG 14 in China should be improved as soon as possible in order to improve the comprehensive marine management system and capacity. In addition, it is also very important to promote the coordinated and balanced development of multiple objectives and indicators related to marine sustainable development.
