<h1>Oman Lifts Ban on Live Bird Imports from India After Avian Flu Concerns; Ministerial Decree No.168/2008 Applied.</h1> The Sultanate of Oman has lifted its ban on importing live bird products from India, initially imposed due to an avian flu outbreak in certain parts of India. The Omani Ministry of Agriculture had restricted imports following the outbreak. The Government of India engaged diplomatically with Oman, highlighting that the flu was confined to specific areas in the northeastern region and that affected birds were culled and isolated. These efforts led to the Omani authorities lifting the ban as per Ministerial Decree No.168/2008, allowing the resumption of imports from India.
