United States of America proposed eligibility of Thailand, China & Vietnam to Export Siluriformes Fish and Fish Products to the United States The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) proposed to amend the Siluriformes fish inspection regulations to list Thailand as a country eligible to export Siluriformes fish and fish products to the United States. FSIS is proposing this action because the Agency has reviewed Vietnam’s, China’s, & Thailand's laws, regulations, and inspection system as implemented and has determined that Vietnam, China & Thailand's Siluriformes fish inspection system is equivalent to the system that the United States has established under the Federal Meat Inspection Act (FMIA) and its implementing regulations. Under this proposal, only raw Siluriformes fish and fish products produced in certified Vietnamese, Chinese & Thailand establishments would be eligible for export to the United States. All such products would continue to be subject to re-inspection at US points-of-entry by FSIS inspectors.
