Ms. Panpilad Saikaew Member and Secretary Office of Standard Development National Bureau of Agricultural Commodity and Food Standards (3) The National Committee on Agricultural Commodity and Food Standards, Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives issued a Notification entitled the Thai Agricultural Standards on Pesticide Residues: Maximum Residue Limits (TAS 9002-2008) on 14 August 2008 which was published in the Royal Gazette dated 18 August 2008. Since then the regulation and information referred to in this standard have been changed. In order to expand the scope of standard to cover larger number of important pesticide residues related to agricultural commodity and food, the Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives deems it necessary to revise the standard by repealing TAS 9002 2008 and issuing TAS 9002-2013. The standard covers the Maximum Residue Limits of 48 pesticides listed by pesticide name as List 1 annexed to this standard. For convenience of use, Appendix 1 is also listed by agricultural commodities related to pesticides. However, any other pesticide residues that have not yet been specified in this standard will be added at later time. This standard is based on the following documents: Department of Agriculture. B.E. 2553 (2010). Report of the Study on Pesticide Residues obtained from Supervised Trials. CX/PR 05/37/5. 2012.

NOTIFICATION OF MINISTRY OF AGRICULTURE AND COOPERATIVES SUBJECT: THAI AGRICULTURAL STANDARD: PESTICIDE RESIDUES: MAXIMUM RESIDUE LIMITS UNDER THE AGRICULTURAL STANDARDS ACT B.E. 2551 (2008) AND ITS AMENDMENTS Whereas the Agricultural Standards Committee, by the decision of the Forth Session dated 28 August B.E. 2556 (2013) deems it necessary to establish an agricultural standard on Pesticide Residues: Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) as a voluntary standard in accordance with the Agricultural Standards Act B.E. 2551 (2008) for the benefits of quality control and inspection, trade facilitation and consumer protection. By virtue of Sections 5, 15 and 16 of the Agricultural Standards Act B.E. 2551 (2008), the Minister of Agriculture and Cooperatives hereby issues this Notification on Thai Agricultural Standard: Pesticide Residues: Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) as follows: 1. The Notification of the Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives on Thai Agricultural Standard entitled Pesticide Residues: Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) B.E.2551 dated 14 August B.E.2551 (2008) is repealed. 2. The Thai Agricultural Standard on Pesticide Residues: Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) (TAS 9002-2013) is established as a voluntary standard, details of which are attached herewith. Notified on 16 October B.E. 2556 (2013) Mr. Yukol Limlamthong Minister of Agriculture and Cooperatives TAS 9002-2556 THAI AGRICULTURAL STANDARD PESTICIDE RESIDUES: MAXIMUM RESIDUE LIMITS 1. SCOPE 1.1 This Thai Agricultural Standard covers the provisions on the Maximum Residue Limit (MRL) for pesticide in agricultural commodity used as food and feed. The MRL is used as reference on the production, trade, and control and inspection of agricultural commodities produced, imported and exported. 1.2 This standard does not cover the Extraneous Maximum Residue Limit (EMRL) for pesticide in the Thai Agricultural Standard entitled “Pesticide Residues: Extraneous Maximum Residue Limits” (TAS 9003). 2. DEFINITIONS For the purpose of this standard: 2.1 Agricultural commodity means produce or a product derived from agriculture, fishery, livestock or forestry and by-product of such produce or product to be used as food, feed, or processed as food and feed. 2.2 Pesticide1/ means any substance intended for preventing, destroying, attracting, repelling, or controlling any pest including unwanted species of plants or animals during the production, storage, transport, distribution and processing of food, agricultural commodities, or animal feeds or which may be administered to animals for the control of ectoparasites. The term includes substances intended for use as a plant growth regulator, defoliant, desiccant, fruit thinning agent, or sprouting inhibitor and substances applied to crops either before or after harvest to protect the commodity from deterioration during storage and transport. The term normally excludes fertilizers, plant and animal nutrients, food additives, feed additives and animal drugs. 2.3 Pesticide residue2/ means any specified substance in food, agricultural commodities or animal feed resulting from the use of a pesticide. The term includes any derivatives of pesticide such as conversion products, metabolites, reaction products and impurities considered to be of toxicological significance. 2.4 Maximum Residue Limit (MRL) means the maximum concentration of a pesticide residue permitted in or on agricultural commodity, recommended by the Agricultural Standards Committee. The concentration is expressed in milligram of pesticide residue per kilogram of agricultural commodity. 2.5 Extraneous Maximum Residue Limit (EMRL) means the maximum concentration of a pesticide residue from former use of the pesticides that the registration is revoked but theirslow degradation causes contamination or accumulation in the environment for long period of time and still be detectable in an agricultural commodity. 1/ and 2/ Codex Alimentarius Commission, Joint FAO/WHO Food Standards Programme; Codex. 2TAS 9002-2556 2.6 Definition of residue means a pesticide residue, parent compound(s) and/or their metabolite(s), specified to be analysed for compliance with the MRL established in this standard. 2.7 Type 4 Hazardous Substance means the hazardous substance of which the production, import, export, or possession is prohibited in accordance with the Notification of the Ministry of Industry on the List of Hazardous Substances issued under the Hazardous Substance Act B.E. 2535 (1992) and amended act of B.E.2551 (2008). 3. REQUIREMENTS 3.1 The pesticide residue found in agricultural commodity shall not exceed the Maximum Residue Limit (MRL) as established in List 1 as annexed herewith. 3.2 The extraneous pesticide residue found in agricultural commodity shall not exceed the Extraneous Maximum Residue Limit (EMRL) as established in the Thai Agricultural Standard entitled “Pesticide Residue: Extraneous Maximum Residue Limits” (TAS 9003). 3.3 The pesticide residue of Type 4 Hazardous Substance under the Hazardous Substance Act B.E. 2535 (1992) and amended act of B.E.2551 (2008) as shown in List 2 as annexed herewith shall not be detected. 3.4 Other than Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3, the pesticide residue shall not exceed MRL as established by Codex3/ 4. METHODS OF SAMPLING AND PORTION OF THE AGRICULTURAL COMMODITY TO BE ANALYSED 4.1 Methods of sampling shall be in accordance with TAS 9025 entitled Thai Agricultural Standard on Methods of Sampling for the Determination of Pesticide Residues. 4.2 The MRL is established for various portions of agricultural commodity e.g. whole fruit, shelled peanut, thus, portion of agricultural commodity for residue analysis shall be in accordance with the requirements established in the Codex Alimentarius Guideline on Portion of Commodities to which Codex MRLs Apply and which is Analyzed (CAC/GL 41, lastest version). 5. METHOD OF ANALYSIS Methods of pesticide residue analysis shall be selected according to its sensitivity for detecting residue at or below the MRL and its performance characteristics shall beappropriate and in compliance with one of the following criteria: 5.1 The method is issued by the national competent authority or international standard organizations or materials published in manuals or other publications or electronic media as internationally recognised; or 3/ These MRLs can be searched via URL http://www.codexalimentarius.org/standards/pesticide-mrls/ 3 TAS 9002-2556 5.2 The method is validated through collaborative studies in accordance with internationally recognised protocol. 5.3 Where none of the abovementioned in Sections 5.1 and 5.2 is available, the methods shall be validated by single laboratory with quality system embedded. The validation shall follow the internationally recognised guideline. 4TAS 9002-2556 List 1 Annexed to Thai Agricultural Standard Pesticide Residues: Maximum Residue Limits (TAS 9002-2013) Maximum

Appendix show only pesticides (excluding definition of pesticides). Thus, the reference to the definition of residue can be seen in List 1 of this standard. (2) Definition of residue of either carbosulfan or carbofuran is sum of carbofuran and 3 hydroxycarbofuran; expressed as carbofuran. (3) Group of dithiocarbamates includes zineb, thiram, propineb, maneb, and mancozeb.
