This report outlines Peru’s regulatory requirements for food and agricultural product imports and updates and replaces the 2021 report. Agricultural imports into Peru have returned to a growing pace with respect to 2021 and there are no significant trade issues. In April 2022, the Peruvian government modified a regulation which banned the use of powdered milk to manufacture evaporated milk. However, the regulation's primary impact is restricting labeling product as “Evaporated Milk", see section VII for more information.
