Romania has expanded the list of goods from Ukraine for which import now requires a license.

This decision was made by the country's government in response to complaints from Romanian farmers about dumping prices for Ukrainian products.

According to Euractiv, Romanian Minister of Agriculture Florin Barbu noted that local poultry producers are facing serious problems due to the import of eggs and poultry meat from Ukraine.

These products are being sold at prices significantly lower than the cost of production in Romania. As a result, the government decided to add eggs and poultry meat to the list of goods that can only be imported with a license.

 

 

The minister explained that protecting Romanian production is a priority. He also emphasized that there is no complete ban on importing Ukrainian eggs and meat. Licenses will be issued to Romanian processors if there is a shortage of these products in the country.

Earlier in October 2023, Romania already implemented licensing for the import of grain and oilseeds from Ukraine and Moldova after the European Commission refused to extend the ban on the import of Ukrainian grain into neighboring EU countries.
