The signing of Free Trade Agreements (FTA) has been considered as a market access tool, however, in the case of fresh agricultural products, real and effective access to international markets is due to phytosanitary measures (Valverde, 2015). In the case of the export of fresh Peruvian mangoes to South Korea, it was only possible after the entry into force of the phytosanitary measures agreed between the NPPOs of both countries in 2015, despite having an FTA with that country since 2011. In this sense, the objective of this research is to know the consequences of the implementation of phytosanitary measures agreed between both countries for the export of fresh mango to South Korea during the period 2015-2020. A qualitative approach with grounded theory was used. For this, semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight professionals from the main agro-export companies of fresh mango to South Korea, ten producers from the list of certified orchards for the export of fresh mango to South Korea, and representatives of the agro-export union and the public sector. As a result, it was validated that the implementation of bilaterally agreed phytosanitary measures generated a significant cost for the hot-water treatment process required for the export of fresh mango to South Korea. As the use of a rapid cooling method is not allowed, such treatment can damage the quality of the fruit, accelerate its ripening and reduce its shelf life. Finally, in the present paper, it was found that there is still some informality in the producers and mango collectors, and that phytosanitary measures help in the market diversification, but that greater commercial promotion is still required in the Asian country.
