Recently, the press has reported difficulties in exporting some medicinal herbs, affecting the production and business activities of many enterprises. In addition to the reasons of difficult markets and falling prices, there are also reasons due to difficulties in implementing some regulations of the Ministry of Health in Circular No. 48/2018/TT-BYT dated December 28, 2018 and Circular No. 03/2021/TT-BYT dated March 4, 2021.

The Ministry of Health, according to its assigned functions, tasks and authority, shall preside over and coordinate with the Ministry of Finance and relevant agencies to urgently review, research, amend and perfect the Ministry's regulations on the import and export of medicinal materials, ensuring the quick removal of obstacles to facilitate production and business activities of enterprises according to regulations; the amendment of regulations for this activity shall be completed before April 25, 2024.
