In the first half of 2025, China's pear exports increased by 18.26% year-on-year, but experienced a phased decline in the Indonesian market due to policy impacts. Indonesia delayed the registration and approval of testing laboratories to August, while only recognizing pesticide residue test reports from specific time periods. Some batches required secondary testing, leading to customs clearance delays of 15-20 days, a 30% increase in testing costs, and a 50% rise in container detention fees.
Recent policy adjustments led to a 30% year-on-year decline in export volume from July to August, mainly affecting export enterprises in North China. However, by the end of August, 20 Chinese laboratories had their COA certification reinstated, and starting from September, new test reports were exempted from secondary testing. Additionally, the implementation of a new tariff policy (three tiers: 0%/15%/25%) since March simplified customs clearance procedures, reducing compliance costs.
The industry expects a compensatory growth in the Indonesian market in the second half of the year, while the Middle East market continues to lead. Looking ahead, the industry plans to accelerate the internationalization of testing standards, and export enterprises are speeding up their diversification strategies.
