UAE HAS LIFTED THE BAN OF IMPORTATION OF INDIAN TABLE EGGS, HATCHING EGGS, AND DAY-OLD CHICKS FROM GOVT. of INDIA APPROVED POULTRY COMPARTMENTS
Since a decade, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES ( UAE) has practically banned the import of Indian Poultry and Poultry Products. They have taken the shadow of off and on outbreaks of Avian Influenza in India. Even at times when India remained free from Avian Influenza, UAE hasn’t opened. Since the UAE was a high volume export market for Indian Table Eggs, the total exports have dropped.

We have been insisting to Indian Government officials time and again to get it opened for at least from the approved poultry compartment units as per OIE norms by GOI. Therefore in response to that in the month of April 2019, UAE govt. has sent a technical team for the audits of our compartments. The team consists of the following officers from the UAE MINISTRY OF CLIMATE CHANGE AND ENVIRONMENT have come to India for the inspection of our various approved poultry compartments by Government of India.
