Argentina: New Import Authorization System. Update on Label Regulation.

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Argentine Government implemented a new system for import authorizations on December 23, 2015, repealing the DJAI (Declaracion Jurada Anticipada de Importaciones) system which had been used to restrict imports of both agricultural and non-agricultural products. Most agricultural imports will be subject to authorization through what the new Argentine Government has announced to be a less restrictive expedited approval system (approvals should take place within 10 days). On a related note, government sources indicate that Resolution No. 420/2015 (Pre-Approval of Food Labels Regulation) will be revoked soon.
