إجراء طارئ من الفلبين: حيوانات حية ولحوم وأحشاء وأطراف صالحة للأكل

The Department of Agriculture (DA) Administrative Circular No. 12, series of 2025, titled 'Guidelines on the Bilateral Recognition of Regionalization of African Swine Fever from Accredited Countries for Export of Swine, and Swine Products into the Philippines', introduces a new policy for the safe importation of swine and pork products. In essence, the circular implements an African Swine Fever (ASF) regionalization scheme, replacing the previous blanket country-wide ban policy. This means the Philippines will now recognize ASF-free regions (Administrative regions) within countries that are already accredited to export to the Philippines, in line with the standards set by the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH).
