Qatar lifts ban on frozen seafood from India, chilled seafood ban to follow soon
Last November, Qatar imposed a ban on frozen seafood imports from India, just ahead of the FIFA World Cup, due to the presence of Vibrio Cholera in the consignment. This was a major blow to India's seafood industry, as Qatar is a major market for Indian seafood. However, after India's assurance that it would take steps to ensure that such incidents do not occur in the future, the ban on frozen seafood was lifted in February.
Although the ban on frozen seafood has been lifted, the ban on chilled seafood still remains in place. According to sources, the ban on chilled seafood is expected to be lifted soon. This is good news for the Indian seafood industry, as it will once again be able to export to Qatar, a major market for its products.
Vibrio Cholera is a bacterium that causes cholera, a disease that can be fatal if left untreated. The presence of this bacterium in seafood is a cause for concern, as it can be transmitted to humans if the seafood is not properly cooked. It is important for seafood exporting countries to ensure that their products are free from harmful bacteria, in order to protect the health of consumers.
Overall, the lifting of the ban on frozen seafood from India is a positive development for the Indian seafood industry. With the expected lifting of the ban on chilled seafood, the industry can once again look forward to exporting to Qatar and other markets.
