Abstract

This Presidential Decree, consisting of 10 articles, authorises in 2018 the importation into the country of a quota of horse mackerel of 70,000 tonnes. Its disaggregation by beneficiaries favours companies which have infrastructures for the processing, treatment or conservation on land, as well as new economic operators who demonstrate technical and financial capacity and who show interest in importing horse mackerel species and thus to remedy the insufficient supply of such fish resulting from the reduction of the fishing period and regulates the quota per beneficiary, the sizes allowed to be imported, the ports of landing, the price regime and import conditions. The General Tax Administration shall establish rapid customs clearance mechanisms for any horse mackerel quota. The beneficiary companies shall act as importers and distributors for the supply to wholesalers in the domestic market.
