Pakistan: FAIRS Country Report Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   PK2024-0020
This report outlines regulatory requirements and import procedures for food and agricultural imports into Pakistan. Compared to the last report submitted in December 2023, this report contains additions to the Food Laws and Nutritional Labelling sections. Genetically engineered soybean imports are likely to resume in early 2025 because a new licensing system is in place. High import duties and labelling and halal requirements hinder opportunities for most types of food imports. The federal government regulates Pakistan’s food imports, and the provincial governments regulate food safety standards.
