3. Certification of Importers and Manufacturers outside the EU • Operators buying Feed Additives from a non EU operator should provide a verifiable plan with milestones and deadlines for ensuring the certification of the supplier and the initial manufacturer of the Feed Additive. • Deadline for the supplier and initial manufacturer to apply for FAMI-QS certification shall not be later than end 2006, and for getting certification no later than end 2007. • It is the auditor's responsibility and obligation to check that above mentioned deadlines are respected. Failure to do this would create a critical non conformity at the operator's (this means a withdrawal of the certificate).
