In this process, the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment has systematized the requirements for food safety control of fresh durian throughout the entire production process from cultivation, harvesting, transportation, preservation, packaging, and export.
Registration, appraisal and certification of food safety for fresh durian shipments used as exported food also have their own control mechanism.
Also according to the decision of the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, the agency assigned by the Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee to be responsible for assessing, inspecting and supervising food safety must inspect the implementation of commitments to produce and trade safe food for growing facilities, growing areas, packaging facilities, preservation and transportation of fresh durian for export.
The decision also specifies requirements for fresh durian for export. Accordingly, exported durian must be produced and harvested from cultivation facilities and growing areas that are inspected, supervised, coded, and listed by the competent authority of the importing country in case of a request to establish a list.
Durian must be stored and transported in accordance with regulations, classified, packaged and labeled at a packaging facility that meets standards and is listed in the recognized list of the import market when necessary.
In addition, exported durian must meet the heavy metal residue standards specified in QCVN 8-2:2011/BYT on heavy metal contamination limits in food; pesticide residue standards specified in Circular No. 50/2016/TT-BYT of the Ministry of Health .
In case the competent authority of the import market requests the competent authority of Vietnam to inspect and issue a State certificate on food safety for the export shipment, the owner of the goods shall submit the dossier to the agency assigned by the Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee to conduct inspection and state certification on food safety for the exported shipment of plant origin according to regulations.
In case the competent authority of the import market does not require the competent authority of Vietnam to inspect and grant State certification on food safety for the exported durian shipment but requires compliance with regulations and standards on food safety, the owner of the goods shall register and certify food safety for the exported shipment in accordance with the regulations and standards on food safety of the competent authority of the import market.
