Before

This page announces an import inspection order issued by Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare on March 20, 2015, regarding Thai durian and processed durian products. Residual pesticides (metalaxyl and mefenoxam) exceeding the legal standard were detected in durian samples. Two violations were confirmed with 0.02 ppm detected, exceeding the 0.01 ppm limit. However, no health risks are posed at these levels. All imported lots must undergo testing, initially through voluntary self-testing by importers until registered inspection agencies establish adequate capacity, with administrative testing as a backup option.
