Ukraine resumes chicken exports to Moldova

The second working meeting of representatives of the State Service for Food Safety and Consumer Protection of Ukraine and the National Food Safety Agency of the Republic of Moldova (ANSA) was held, during which the parties discussed the current status of the resumption of exports of Ukrainian meat products to the Republic of Moldova.

This is stated in the report of the State Service for Food Safety and Consumer Protection of Ukraine, Ukrainian News Agency reports.

The key topic of the negotiations was the results of laboratory tests conducted in the laboratory of the European Union.

The data obtained confirm the compliance of the products with the established safety requirements.

"Following the results of the meeting, an important decision was made - access to the market of the Republic of Moldova for frozen and chilled poultry meat of Ukrainian production from one Ukrainian business entity, which has the right to export to the European Union, has been restored," the report says.

It is noted that the next step will be the resumption of exports to Moldova for other Ukrainian producers, on which the State Service for Food Safety and Consumer Protection of Ukraine is already working together with ANSA.

Moldova suspended imports of Ukrainian chicken in January 2026 due to complaints about the quality of feed, which the Ukrainian side called discriminatory.

As the agency reported, russian shelling of infrastructure facilities in the area of ​​the Dniester hydroelectric power station led to a large-scale leak of technical lubricants into the Dniester River, which created a direct threat to the ecosystems of the two countries.
