Ukrainian entrepreneurs will be punished for violating the rules for exporting agricultural products to some EU countries.

As Minister of Agricultural Policy of Ukraine Mykola Solskyi said during an online meeting with his Bulgarian counterpart Kyryll Vatev, the government has adopted a resolution that improves the rules for exporting certain agricultural products to prevent abuse.

From now on, an enterprise can be excluded from the list of verified members of the agro-industrial complex if information is received from Bulgaria, Romania, Slovakia, Hungary, or Poland that the products loaded for transit through these countries actually remained in one of these countries.

For example, if, according to the documents, a shipment went to Greece but was sold in Bulgaria, then the entrepreneur will be excluded from the list of verified agribusiness entities.
