According to Ministry of Industry and Trade, in the new regulation of the European Commission, mercury residues in seafood range from 0.3 to 1μg/kg, depending on the type of product. The maximum mercury residue in salt is 0.1μg/kg.
For products that already existed on the market, the product will be consumed until the expiry date of the product.
This regulation will take effect from May 3, 2022.
The Ministry of Industry and Trade noted that businesses exporting seafood and salt should pay attention to the new EU regulations on mercury residues.
The EU is currently one of the largest markets for Vietnamese seafood. In January this year, seafood export to the EU reached $108 million.
