  We present an overview of the "FAIR Guiding Principles for scientific data
management and stewardship", first published in 2016, and how they relate to
astronomical data management. In particular, we discuss the connection between
the FAIR principles and IVOA standards, and how data management systems with
these standards implemented are close to compliance. We then look at what extra
components are required to make astronomical data FAIR. Finally, we give a case
study of the All-Sky Virtual Observatory (Australia's node of the VO) and their
implementation of the FAIR principles.
