The National Institute of Animal Quarantine has reached an agreement with the Philippines to relax quarantine requirements for Korean tangerine exports, now allowing air cargo shipments. Previously restricted to ship cargo with stringent measures, the quarantine requirement has been reduced from 10% to 2% of the total quantity. This change is anticipated to enhance the export performance of Korean tangerines to the Philippines, with the Quarantine Agency planning to update export guidelines to benefit farmers promptly.
