07.08.09; List of third countries and territories from which certain crustaceans and ornamental aquatic animals may be imported into the European Community
Directive 2006/88/EC lays down the animal health requirements to be applied for the placing on the market, the importation into and the transit through the European Community of aquaculture animals and products thereof.
That Directive provides that aquaculture animals and products thereof are to be introduced into the EU only from third countries or parts of third countries that appear on a list drawn up and updated in accordance with the procedure referred to therein.
A special EU Regulation lays down a list of third countries, territories, zones or compartments from which imports are permitted of aquaculture animals intended for farming, put and take fisheries and open ornamental facilities, and of ornamental fish susceptible.
That list will be amended from 1 October 2009.
Vetimpleg already provides you from today with the new third country list.
