China and Japan have agreed on steps to resume Japanese seafood imports, according to the Nikkei, signaling a potential end to China’s 2023 trade ban.

  • Japan will register seafood processing facilities with China and include inspection certificates confirming no radioactive contamination.
  • The deal follows efforts to ease tensions after Japan’s release of treated Fukushima wastewater. China is expected to soon lift import restrictions on seafood from Japanese regions outside Fukushima.
