The Argentine government has recently published Decrees No. 156/2024 and No. 159/2024 in the Official Gazette, announcing a significant change: the cancellation of labeling regulatory requirements for imported textiles and footwear upon entry. This move marks a solid step taken by the Argentine government to simplify the import process and reduce trade barriers.

According to the new regulations, the Secretariat of Consumer Protection will be responsible for post-import supervision, ensuring that these products meet the necessary product labeling standards before entering the market. This adjustment will not only shorten the import process, reduce import costs, but also significantly improve import efficiency, injecting new vitality into Argentina's trade development.

Previously, all imported products had to be labeled in the country of origin or apply for re-labeling with the Secretariat of Industry and Trade before entering the Argentine market. This cumbersome procedure often led to extended import cycles and increased operational costs for importers.

The Argentine government's decision reflects its firm determination to promote trade liberalization and facilitation. By eliminating unnecessary regulatory requirements, Argentina has not only created a fairer and more transparent trade environment for domestic and foreign enterprises but also brought more diverse choices and more reasonable prices to consumers. Undoubtedly, this series of measures will have a positive impact on Argentina's economic development.
