Malaysia and Thailand are working to strengthen seafood supply chains by addressing trade challenges through technical discussions focused on food safety, biosecurity, and sustainable market access.
The two countries are seeking a science based solution following recent restrictions affecting shrimp and sea bass trade. The measures have impacted seafood exporters and producers, prompting both sides to review import requirements and explore ways to maintain stable fisheries trade.
Officials from both countries are focusing on improving certification processes, strengthening product traceability, sharing scientific information, and applying risk based inspection measures. These efforts aim to create a more transparent and reliable seafood supply chain while ensuring compliance with health and safety standards.
The ongoing discussions also include reviews of technical requirements for shrimp and sea bass imports, with both sides working toward reducing trade barriers and improving efficiency for compliant producers.
By prioritizing cooperation, risk management, and supply chain transparency, Malaysia and Thailand aim to build a more resilient fisheries sector that supports producers, protects consumers, and promotes sustainable regional trade.
