Exporting to Asia

China · GACC

Food exported to China requires, depending on the product, registration of the origin plant with China Customs (GACC). We verify the applicable registration before quoting.

Protocols

Fresh Chilean fruit enters each Asian country under species-specific bilateral phytosanitary protocols.
