FTP - Prohibition on import of milk and milk products from China
THE prohibition on import of milk and milk products (including chocolates and chocolate products and candies/ confectionary/ food preparations with milk or milk solids as an ingredient) from China was imposed vide Notification No. 46(RE-2008)/2004-2009 dated 24th September, 2008, Notification No. 67(RE-2008)/2004-2009 dated 1st December, 2008 and Notification No. 16/2004-2009 dated 3.1.2011 and extended from time to time. The latest extension was notified on 18.06.2013 by Notification No. 23 (RE-2013)/2009-2014, by which the prohibition was extended till 23.6.2014.
