Amendment to the Antibiotic-Free Aquatic Product Processing Certification System

The legislation regarding the certification system for antibiotic-free aquatic product processing has been amended.

Key Changes

- Deleted: The Non-use of Active Agents Certification

- Introduced: The Antibiotic-Free Aquatic Product Processing Certification

The previous certification for non-use of active agents had very limited practical application and minimal effectiveness. To address this, a new certification has been established for products manufactured, processed, and distributed using antibiotic-free aquatic raw materials in combination with organic ingredients.

Expected Impact

This legislative amendment provides seafood processing companies and related businesses with the opportunity to:

- Strengthen market competitiveness

- Promote sustainable growth

Stakeholders are encouraged to review the amended provisions and incorporate them into their certification preparations and business operations.
