Following of articles in the international and Haitian press about the Brazilian Federal Police's investigation into irregularities in the sanitary inspection system at meat production facilities in Brazil, the Embassy of Brazil in Port-au-Prince, would like to clarify that out of 4,837 meat establishments subject to surveillance in Brazil, only 21 would be involved in irregularities.

These 21 establishments were suspended and placed under a special inspection regime. None of these 21 establishments exported meat to Haiti.

The Embassy of Brazil has transmitted to the Government of Haiti technical information about the investigation and is available for any other information that may be required.

The Embassy also recalls that several countries, that had banned imports of meat from Brazil, have already abrogated these measures and resumed imports (Barbados, Chile, China, South Korea, Egypt, Hong Kong and Qatar).
