Tunisian olive oil pressures Portuguese market and Extremadura wants to block duty-free entries

The entry of Tunisian olive oil at reduced prices is exerting high pressure on the Portuguese market, with the GPP warning that national producers face difficulties in covering production costs. Extremadura asked the Spanish government to bring to Brussels the review and possible suspension of the inward processing regime that allows olive oil imports without payment of customs duties. Official data shows that Spain imported in the last five months more olive oil from Tunisia than Extremadura produces in an entire year, with 76.3% of these entries benefiting from the customs regime in question. The Alentejo, the country's main producing region, could be directly affected by any decision from Brussels.
