Analysis

Decision No. 2149 bans the import of HTPs, except for personal use, under Circular 2020/7. The domestic production of HTPs is prohibited without approval from the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry and no approval has been granted as of this review. Therefore, the sale of HTPs is effectively banned.
