The General Administration of Customs of China (GACC) is again allowing the import of Vietnamese fresh chilies after a long negotiation process. Five Vietnamese exporters have received permits to export the product to China under strict requirements, especially those in plant quarantine. All shipments must be quarantined by relevant Vietnamese units with clear notes of relevant technical parameters in the phytosanitary certificate.
In the time to come, in order for the Chinese side to accept more packaging facilities of Vietnam, the department will coordinate with localities to guide them on how to meet requirements of the Chinese side. It will make recommendations on a list of more exporters to the GACC for approval.
