United Arab Emirates: Agricultural Biotechnology Annual
Link to report:
In May 2020, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) passed a new biosafety law but has not set a date for enforcement. Kuwait, Oman, Qatar and the UAE (GCC-4) permit the importation of GE food products of plant origin. GCC-4 countries have established several technical regulations that require labeling for both raw and further processed food and feed that may contain GE plant products. Importation and domestic production of GE animals and related products are not permitted in the GCC-4.
