The Agricultural and Livestock Service (SAG in Spanish), informs that, as part of the periodic monitoring of the Organic Products Equivalence Agreement between Chile and the European Union, this bloc confirmed the indefinite validity of the agreement, ensuring the continuity of recognition of the Chilean organic certification system.
The equivalence agreement, signed between Chile and the European Union in 2017, allows organic products certified in Chile to be recognized as equivalent in the European market, without the need for additional certifications. This means that a Chilean organic product can enter Europe as organic under the same conditions as a European product, facilitating trade and reducing costs for exporters. The categories of products included are as follows: fresh and processed vegetables including wine, seeds and propagation material, as well as honey.
