Phytosanitary registration trends shift across Latin America
Phytosanitary registration landscapes in Latin America are undergoing significant shifts through 2025 and 2026. Argentina and Mexico are moving toward administrative simplification and reduced bureaucracy, though Mexico is implementing stricter selection processes for specific molecules.
Brazil is accelerating approval speeds while simultaneously increasing technical requirements and controls on certain products. In the Andean Community, countries continue to operate under common frameworks, though implementation timelines vary by nation. These regulatory changes impact manufacturers and distributors, as the cost and time required for registration now influence market prioritization.
