The Brazilian government has agreed to the International Veterinary Certificate (IVC) model proposed by Brazil for the export of live goats and sheep to Oman, opening up a new market for Brazilian agribusiness. The process also requires an official request from the local importer to the Omani health authority. This agreement marks Brazil's 170th market opening in 2024, adding to the 248 openings in 60 destinations since 2023, a achievement possible through the collaboration between the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock (MAPA), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MRE), and the Omani Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Water Resources (MAFWR).
