Philippines: Meat and Poultry SPSIC Validity Re-extended

On January 25, 2022, the Philippine Department of Agriculture issued Administrative Order No. 2 (AO 2), re-extending the temporary 90-day validity of SPS Import Clearances for imported meat and poultry through December 31, 2022. AO 2 cites ongoing supply chain issues and logistical difficulties brought about by the global COVID situation, as well as the contribution of meat and poultry importation to the overall food supply and security of the country as the primary factors for extending the validity of the import permits.
