Exports of lamb could begin as early as next month once export certification is finalised and released.
The agreement comes following ongoing negotiations and inspections carried out jointly by Defra, the Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB), FSA, UKECP, DAERA and APHA.
AHDB International Market Development Director Phil Hadley said it is “great news” for the sheep industry and for lamb processors and producers in the UK who are keen to look at new, non-EU markets.
