NUEVAS NORMAS DE QATAR EN MATERIA DE  
IMPORTACIÓN DE PRODUCTOS LÁCTEOS  
COMUNICACIÓN DE QATAR  
La siguiente comunicación, recibida el 12 de noviembre de  2021, se distribuye a petición de la 
delegación de Qatar . 
 
_______________  
 
 
1.  Qatar ha tomado nota de la preocupación de la Unión Europea con respecto a la Circular del 
Ministerio de Salud Pública de Qatar sobre el tiempo de conservación del queso y le da l as gracias 
por su interés.  
2.  Las autoridades competentes de Doha están examinando este asunto.  
3.  Aprovechamos esta oportunidad para reiterar que estas medidas se han adoptado para garantizar 
la calidad de los productos disponibles en Qatar y que la protección de los consumidores es de 
importancia primordial para el Gobierno de Qatar, como lo son las obligaciones internacionales que 
le corresponden en el marco de los Acuerdos de la OMC, incluido el Acuerdo MSF.  
4.  Asimismo, deseamos asegurar a los Miembros que las medidas pertinentes se aplican por igual 
a los productos nacionales e importados y, por lo tanto, no son de carácter discriminatorio. Además, 
las repercusiones que este Reglamento pueda tener en el comercio no serán más que las necesarias 
para contribuir a  alcanzar el objetivo legítimo de proteger a los consumidores. A este respecto, 
quisiéramos subrayar que los requisitos aplicados a productos específicos en Qatar no impiden la 
importación ni la venta de ningún producto que cumpla las normas de calidad y, por lo tanto, 
no tienen un efecto significativo en el comercio.  
5.  Dicho esto, seguimos comunicando a nuestra capital las preocupaciones expresadas en el día 
de hoy y responderemos a las preguntas que hemos recibido lo antes posible. Asimismo, seguimos 
dispue stos a continuar nuestro debate constructivo con los Miembros interesados a fin de dar 
más explicaciones en caso necesario.
