Singapore has completed a review of the conditions for the importation of chilled pork, and will be making trade facilitative amendments to the existing conditions, to allow for the importation of chilled pork which:
1. Comes from animals that are originating from a compartment with negligible risk for Trichinella infection in accordance with Article 8.18.5 of the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH) Terrestrial Animal Health Code; or
2. Comes from animals that have tested negative for the detection of Trichinella larvae based on an approved method of testing; or

These conditions are aligned with the recommendations in Article 8.18.6 of the WOAH Terrestrial Animal Health Code, and will replace the existing conditions which requires the country from which the animals are derived to be Trichinosis-free at the country level, or for carcasses from which the pork was derived to be tested and found free from Trichinosis. Other existing conditions for the importation of chilled pork will continue to apply.
