Civil society group Siang Jak Pa has asked the court to review how government agencies oversee traceability for aquatic animal imports and exports. Its data shows 11 ornamental fish firms exported about 320,000 fish in 222 shipments to more than 10 countries in 2013-2016, before spread was reported in 2017. The group says it is not yet concluding that exporters are at fault. A Central Administrative Court ruling of 8 September 2026 orders agencies to control and remediate the affected areas within 180 days. For ornamental fish and aquatic exporters, expect tighter species identification and document checks, and keep export records and species certificates on file.
