The European Union has allowed the importation of pet food from Georgia to the EU.

The adoption of the regulation was preceded by measures taken by the National Food Agency under the Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Area (DCFTA) agreement to bring the country’s legislation closer to that of the EU.

These measures were praised by a special working group of the European Commission during a recent visit to Georgia.
