The EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA) officially valid from August 1, 2020, immediately opened up many opportunities for many agricultural products, including rice.

Following Mr. Nguyen Nhu Cuong, the Director of the Department of Cultivation (MARD - Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development) the preparation of marching to Vietnamese rice seeds to the EU has been deployed by MARD for a long time. Immediately after EVFTA came into effect, the EU was for Vietnam to export rice export quotas of 80,000 tons/year, on September 4, 2020, the Government issued Decree No. 103/2020 / ND-CP regulations on Certificate of aromatic rice exported to the European Union.

"To receive import tax incentives according to quotas according to the regulations of the European Union, jasmine rice exported to the EU must be certified to ensure the right variety. Therefore, to ensure the purebred, correctness of jasmine rice exported, it is necessary to check the rice fields before harvesting. As a rule, the inspection of jasmine rice fields is done once in 20 days before harvesting. Organizations and individuals exporting jasmine rice must be responsible for the purebred, properties in the harvesting, drying, processing, preservation, grinding, rubbing, processing and packaging, "Mr. Cuong sail with a strong attitude.

For goods to receive tax incentives, at the top of the customs of the importing country, the inspection of rice DNA to ensure that the imported goods are exempted from tax exemptions is necessary.
