Malaysia has achieved a major milestone in sustainable palm oil trade by securing preferential market access through the Malaysia-European Free Trade Association (EFTA) Economic Partnership Agreement (Meepa). Signed on June 23, 2025, the agreement grants reduced import tariffs for MSPO-certified palm oil products, reinforcing Malaysia’s commitment to sustainability and enhancing its global competitiveness. The deal also positions the Malaysian Sustainable Palm Oil (MSPO) certification as a central requirement, boosting international recognition and supporting deforestation-free supply chains.

Following extensive consultation with key stakeholders, the Malaysian Sustainable Palm Oil (MSPO) is issuing an additional guideline on resumption of new MSPO certification applications and the provision of temporary exemptions for selected MSPO requirements

We are pleased to introduce the e-MSPO Helpdesk to assist our stakeholders. This helpdesk serves as a platform to provide support services and improve issue resolution efficiency for our e-MSPO users.
