This year is believed to be a brighter year for the domestic tra fish industry with exports inching up in the first quarter, according to an official from the Viet Nam Pangasius Association.
The Food Safety and Inspection Service under the United States Department of Agriculture officially recognised Viet Nam''s Pangasius Food Safety Control System on October 31 after more than three years of negotiations.
The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) under the United States Department of Agriculture has proposed continuing Viet Nam’s eligibility to export Siluriformes fish, commonly known as catfish, and fish products to the United States.
US Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) will inspect reality of Viet Nam’s catfish control system in next months, according the National Agro-Forestry-Fisheries Quality Assurance Department (NAFIQAD).
Despite a new US requirement that foreign exporters demonstrate their food safety control system is equivalent to American regulations, no backlog has been recorded in Vietnamese tra fish exports to that country.
Food Safety and Inspection Service, the public health agency under
the US Department of Agriculture, has allowed two more Vietnamese firms
to export Siluriformes fish to the United States.
