Pakistan: PPD to deal with mango exporters’ claims

The Trade Development Authority of Pakistan (TDAP) has advised mango exporters to file their claims for freight subsidy, from now on, with the Plant and Protection Department (PPD) of MINFAL and not with the TDAP.

An official of TDAP said that freight subsidy on the export of mangoes has been excluded from the general freight subsidy scheme of TDAP and now only Plant and Protection Department will entertain these claims.

He said that this decision has been taken to avoid double payment of freight subsidy to mango exporters as both TDAP and Plant Protection Department were involved in taking up freight subsidy applications. He advised all mango exporters who filed their claims for subsidy with TDAP, to re-apply their claims with Plant and Protection Department for availing payment. From now, TDAP will not process the claims of mango exporters for payment, he added.
