  2. Is it a composite product? Is it subject to veterinary checks? What are the import conditions?

  3. Import Conditions - General principles Processed POAO content: Must meet the EU animal and public health requirements that apply to processed POAOs and Finished composite product: Must meet EU animal and public health requirements

  4. Processed POAO content: Animal Health requirements – Dairy product content must have undergone the relevant treatment (e.g. pasteurisation, sterilisation) for country of origin of the dairy product. (Regulation (EU) No 605/2010) – Meat product content must have undergone required treatment for country of origin of the meat product. (Commission Decision 2007/777/EC) Processed animal product content must come from an approved third country (Council Directive 2002/99/EC)

  5. Commission Decision 2007/777 /EC - Meat products 3rd country & treatment list

  6. Processed POAO content: Public Health requirements The processed animal product content of a composite product: • Must come from an approved third country (Reg. (EC) No 852/2004) • Must come from an approved establishment (Reg. (EC) No 853/2004) • Must come from a country with an approved residue control plan for the product concerned (Dir.96/23/EC). (List is in Decision 2011/163/EU as amended)

  7. The Finished composite product Must meet EU general food hygiene provisions (same as for any food) • The composite product can be made in a registered establishment – i.e. it does not have to be made in an EU-approved establishment • The composite product does not need to be marked with an ID mark

  8. Harmonised composite products as listed in Regulation (EU) No 28/2012 • composite products containing processed meat products, as referred to in Article 4(a) of Decision 2007/275/EC; • composite products containing processed milk products and covered by Article 4(b) and (c) of Decision 2007/275/EC; • (c) composite products containing half or more of their substance of • processed fishery or egg products and covered by Article 4(b) of • Decision 2007/275/EC. • Third country where the final composite product was made must be on the relevant third country list(s) for the POAO content(s) that has to be certified(art. 3.1)

  9. Harmonised composite products as listed in Regulation (EU) No 28/2012 The certificate covers the animal and public health requirements for relevant meat product, dairy, fish, egg content components which have to be certified • Must meet the requirements of the health certificate (article 3.2) Must have the health certificate laid down in Regulation (EU) No 28/2012 (article 3.2)

  10. Requirements laid down in certificate • Meat product content + Dairy product content • Must come from: - Same country as the composite product, or - EU, or - Another third country with similar high health status

  11. Similar high health status means: • Dairy product content: • Dairy products can only move from one Column A country to another Column A country or one Column B country to another Column B country • Dairy products cannot move from a Column C country to other countries [ref: Regulation (EU) No 605/2010] • Meat product content: • Meat products can only go from one Treatment A country to another Treatment A country (treatment applicable to the species concerned) [ref: Commission Decision 2007/777/EC]

  12. Country where composite product was produced must be on the relevant third country list for the POAO content(s) which has to be certified (Note to box I.7 reflecting article 3.1) Requirements laid down in certificate • Place of origin of the composite product must be in the same country where the composite product was produced. (Note to box I.10)

  13. What POAO content has to be certified? • Any meat product content • Dairy content where: • Dairy product content is 50%+ • Not shelf stable – Any % • Fishery product content if 50%+ • Egg product content if 50%+ (‘Cooked’ = heat-treated sufficiently to denature any raw animal product)

  14. Health certificate - Compliance with food hygiene package I am aware of Regulations (EC) No 178/2002, (EC) No 852/2004and (EC) No 853/2004 …… and that the composite products were produced in accordance with the above legislation

  15. Meat products certification • Products meet animal health requirements of CD 2007/777/EC • Country of origin • Establishment of origin • Various BSE attestations

  16. Dairy products certification • Country of origin • Establishment of origin • Animals under control of veterinary services and from inspected holdings not under restrictions • Milk from cows, ewes, goats buffaloes – pasteurised, sterilised, UHT etc • Milk from other animals – sterilised or UHT only

  17. Fishery products certification • Approved country • Approved establishment Egg products certification • Approved country • HPAI and ND free or heat treated Note: In the case of composite products where only the fishery and/or egg sections have to be certified, the certificate can be signed by an official inspector rather than an official veterinarian

  18. Example certificate for composite product from Vietnam containing processed fishery product and no other animal product

  19. Non-harmonised composite products Regulation (EU) No 28/2012 article 3.3 e.g. containing honey / gelatine / snails etc. AH conditions = EU (or national rules if no EU rules) PH conditions = EU general food hygiene rules + any specific national rules. Transitional measures until 31/12/2016 (Reg (EU) No 1079/2013)
