Taiwan will no longer recognize the organic certification of any countries that haven’t signed a bilateral organic equivalency agreement with Taiwan before May 20, 2020.

As revealed by the official notice [1] released on February 21, 2020, a new bilateral organic certification equivalency arrangement (Chinese/English version [2]) between Taiwan and Australia came into effect on January 23, 2020.
