India on list of authorised countries to export aquaculture products to EU beyond September

New Delhi, June 8 (UNI): India has been included on the list of countries authorised to export aquaculture products, eggs, honey and animal casings to the European union beyond September under the amended European union Regulatory Framework, said a Commerce Ministry statement here on Monday.
The EU notified an amendment to Regulation (EU) 2021/405 through Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2026/1189 in view of growing concerns relating to antimicrobial resistance.
This revised regulation will come into effect from September this year and lays down additional requirements for countries exporting specified animal-origin products to the European Union.
According to the Commerce Ministry, India's inclusion in the list of authorised countries ensures continuity of exports of these products to the EU market beyond September.
It's good for the fisheries sector, as their exports from India to the EU are currently valued at USD 1.59 billion.
This achievement is a result of the Commerce Ministry's close coordination with the Export Inspection Council (EIC) and other stakeholders.
"The Department of Commerce has been actively engaging with the European Commission to address regulatory requirements and market access issues, while the EIC has strengthened India's Official Control System through enhanced inspection, testing and certification mechanisms in line with European union regulations," the statement said.
The Department of Commerce, Export Inspection Council and other stakeholders, including the Marine Products Export Development Authority (MPEDA), will continue to work closely with EU-approved establishments and regulatory authorities to ensure smooth implementation of the regulatory requirements and maintain high standards of quality and food safety in export products.
