The Indian government has officially approved the import of fresh durian from Vietnam, marking a significant step toward diversifying export markets, enhancing the value of Vietnam's durian industry and strengthening agricultural and trade cooperation between the two countries.
According to Vietnamese Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, the decision was announced by the Embassy of India in Hanoi.
Under the revised regulations, Vietnam has been added to the list of countries authorized to export fresh durian (Durio zibethinus) for consumption in the Indian market. India does not require any additional phytosanitary declarations on the phytosanitary certificate, nor does it impose any special import conditions for the product.
The market opening is the result of sustained technical consultations and close cooperation between the national plant protection authorities of Vietnam and India. It also marks another milestone in the growing agricultural and trade partnership between the two countries, creating new opportunities for Vietnamese durian exporters to expand their presence in one of the world's largest consumer markets.
