In 2021, Vietnam will implement new regulations on organic products to align with European Union (EU) rules, the Vietnam Trade Office in Sweden announced. The regulations aim to ensure fair competition, prevent fraud, and increase consumer confidence by requiring non-EU manufacturers to meet EU standards. The EU will introduce regulations in January 2021, enforcing strict controls on pesticide use, soil management, and food production. These rules will apply to both EU and non-EU producers exporting organic products to the EU. The regulations will also secure a homogeneous method to reduce pesticide contamination risk, enhance control systems, and require group certification for small EU producers. However, concerns are raised about the impact of these regulations on small organic producers in developing countries due to their inability to meet the stringent requirements and the prevalence of fraud in the organic food market.
