I'm out of town, I'm going to have to chat in the hospital European Commission issues new Regulation regarding maximum residue levels (MRL) for active ingredients isoxaben, novaluron and tetraconazole Earlier, the European Commission also issued Regulation 2023/174 amending Regulation 2019/1793 on the temporary application of official and emergency control measures to certain goods imported into the EU. Specifically, the regulations amending some products of Vietnam as follows: instant noodles containing spices, seasoning powder or sauce, dragon fruit will have the frequency of testing for pesticides is 20%; Okra and capsicum of the capsicum variety maintained the 50% frequency of inspection. This is not a new point. According to Ms. Nguyen Thi Hoang Thuy, Commercial Counselor of Vietnam in Sweden, the new point in this regulation is that okra produced in Vietnam is required to have a certificate of pesticide control issued by the Vietnamese side. But also under the new regulations, 4 products of Vietnam are parsley, coriander, basil, mint, which are removed from EU control, no longer controlled at 50% when exported to the EU market as before. This.

The European Commission will then announce changes in the regulation on control measures. There are products under increased control, there are products without control. Therefore, enterprises exporting to the EU need to pay attention to the control thresholds so as not to violate them. Because only a few violating businesses will affect the entire industry, affecting other businesses. In addition, the European Commission has issued Regulation 2022/741 controlling maximum pesticide residue levels and assessing consumer exposure to pesticide residues on and in food. products of animal origin. Member States will take and analyze samples for the pesticide combinations covered by the regulation. Products of plant and animal origin that will be randomly sampled for testing are oranges, apples, bananas, kiwis, grapefruits, onions, carrots, broccoli, cabbage, beans, peppers, rice. shelled, poultry fat, cow's milk, chicken eggs... In addition to checking at the border gate, these products will be post-inspected, randomly picked up at the supermarket for inspection. If there are signs of violation, the concerned agency will go to the import warehouse for further inspection. "Infringing products being recalled and having to be widely advertised in the media will greatly affect the image of Vietnam's goods while building an image in these difficult markets is inherently very difficult. difficult", Ms. Thuy emphasized.
