On May 5, 2015, Turkey's Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Livestock (MinFAL) directed ports to regulate the import of enzymes under the Veterinary, Food and Feed Regulation, which discontinues the requirement for importers to provide a certificate for biotech-free enzymes or for products that utilized enzymes in their manufacture. Turkey will continue to require a biotech-free certificate for the import of microorganisms.
