India and Taiwan implemented a Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA) for Organic Products on July 8, 2024. This agreement allows certified organic products from both countries to enter each other's markets, facilitating trade. The agreement is overseen by India's Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA) and Taiwan's Agriculture and Food Agency. This MRA enhances the export of Indian organic products like Aromatic and Medicinal Plants, Rice, and Herbal Tea to Taiwan and allows Taiwan’s certified organic products to be imported into India, promoting bilateral trade in organic goods.
