Thailand — Prohibited animal-feed ingredients & especially-controlled feeds (DLD notifications B.E. 2560 / 2017)
Source: DLD Division of Animal Feed and Veterinary Products Control (AFVC) report "Animal Feed control in Thailand" by Dr. Wanida Chaengprachak (DLD), retrieved 2026-07-29. The report reproduces Thailand's DLD notifications prescribing prohibited importation of animal feed with risk from Avian Influenza (AI) and Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE), and the especially-controlled animal feeds requiring production-facility audit and approval prior to importation (all B.E. 2560 = A.D. 2017).
This P3 topic covers the ingredients / undesirable-substance layer: prohibited animal-derived feed ingredients (AI-risk poultry meal, BSE-risk cattle-derived feed) and the especially-controlled-feed regime.
