Overview
- China’s General Administration of Customs revoked the prohibition with immediate effect, in a notice dated October 31 and reported November 7.
- The announcement did not specify which Brazilian poultry products are covered, leaving operational details to follow.
- The ban was imposed in mid-May after a single high-pathogenicity avian influenza case at a commercial farm in Montenegro, Rio Grande do Sul.
- Brazil declared itself free of the outbreak on June 18 after 28 days without new cases in commercial farms and notified the World Organisation for Animal Health.
- A Chinese technical delegation audited Brazil’s controls in September, and industry group ABPA welcomed the reopening, noting China bought more than 560,000 tonnes of Brazilian poultry in 2024.
