Fertilizer (HS: 3101) Animal or vegetable fertilizers, whether or not mixed together or chemically treated; fertilizers produced by the mixing or chemical treatment of animal or vegetable products.

Draft amendment of the Official Specifications for Normal Fertilizers (1 page(s), in English)

So far, composts made of animal wastes as raw materials applied with flocculants and coagulants are only allowed if registered by the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries prior to producing and selling them as fertilizers. Thereafter, by amending the Official Specifications, regulations are to be deregulated to enable composts with flocculants and coagulants to be produced and sold by submitting notification.For details, see the attachment.
