DNA analysis can often help industry to meet these requirements, both for local sale and for exporting products, and regulators to enforce them. When specific regulations are not in place, regulations from other regions may be helpful in developing guidelines. This chapter contrasts the more thorough regulations of the European Union with the frameworks in place in South Africa, a developing nation. It also discusses the changing state of seafood regulations in the United States, one of the world's largest consumers of seafood, and how these regulations may impact global seafood sales. The integration, or potential integration, of DNA analysis is reviewed, including benefits and barriers from a regulatory perspective.
