India Extends Compliance Deadline for New Vegan Product Import Requirements

India recently extended the deadline by which all products labeled as vegan must comply with new import requirements, USDA's Foreign Agricultural Service said in a report last week. The deadline was extended for six months until Jan. 26, and will require the imports to comply with a new clause that specifies “no vegan food products shall be imported except with a certificate issued by the recognized authorities of the exporting countries in the format as specified by the Authority is accepted,” USDA said.
