COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2019/2072  
of 28 November 2019  
establishing uniform conditions for the implementation of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031 of the 
European Parliament and the Council, as regards protective measures against pests of plants, and 
repealing Commission Regulation (EC) No 690/2008 and amending Commission Implementing 
Regulation (EU) 2018/2019  
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,  
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,  
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2016/2031 of the European Parliament and the Council of 26 October 2016 on 
protective measures against pests of plants, amending Regulations (EU) No 228/2013, (EU) No 652/2014 and (EU) 
No 1143/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Council Directives 69/464/EEC, 
74/647/EEC, 93/85/EEC, 98/57/EC, 2000/29/EC, 2006/91/EC and 2007/33/EC (  1 ), and in particular Article 5(2), 
Article 32(2), Article 37(2), Article 37(4), Article 40(2), Article 41(2), Article 53(2), Article 54(2), Article 72(1), Article  73, 
Article 79(2) and Article 80(2) thereof,  
Whereas:  
(1)  Regulation (EU) 2016/2031 is to apply from 14 December 2019. In order for its provisions to become fully 
effective, implementing rules are to be adopted regulating the pests, plants, plant products and other objects, as 
well as respective requirements needed to protect the Union territory from phytosanitary risks.  
(2)  In view of this, specific rules should be set out in order to list the Union quarantine pests, the protected zone 
quarantine pests and the Union regulated non-quarantine pests, as well as measures to prevent their presence in 
the respective territories of the Union or on plants for planting.  
(3)  The pests listed in Part A of Annex I to Council Directive 2000/29/EC (  2 ) and Section I of Part A of Annex II to 
that Directive have been reassessed by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) in order to set up the list of 
Union quarantine pests pursuant to Article 5 of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031. The reassessment was necessary to 
update the phytosanitary status of those pests in accordance with the most recent technical and scientific devel ­
opments, and also to assess their compliance with the criteria of Article 3 of that Regulation in respect of the 
Union territory and Section 1 of Annex I thereto.  
(4)  As a result of that reassessment, some pests listed in Annexes I and II to Directive 2000/29/EC should not be 
included in the list of Union quarantine pests because they do not fulfil the conditions provided for in Article 3 of 
Regulation (EU) 2016/2031 in respect of the Union territory.EN  10.12.2019 Official Journal of the European Union L 319/1  
( 1 ) OJ L 317, 23.11.2016, p. 4.  
( 2 ) Council Directive 2000/29/EC of 8 May 2000 on protective measures against the introduction into the Community of organisms 
harmful to plants or plant products and against their spread within the Community (OJ L 169, 10.7.2000, p. 1). (5)  Certain other pests, some of which are listed in Annexes I and II to Directive 2000/29/EC, have been found to 
fulfil the conditions provided for in Article 3 of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031 in respect of the Union territory, 
therefore they should be included in the list of Union quarantine pests.  
(6)  As a result of the reassessment, some of the pests listed in Annexes I and II to Directive 2000/29/EC as pests not 
known to occur in the Union territory, should be included in the list of Union quarantine pests as pests known to 
occur in the Union territory, due to their established presence in certain parts of it.  
(7)  The names of certain pests should be updated to reflect the latest developments of the international nomenclature. 
Those pests are to be listed together with the respective codes assigned by the European and Mediterranean Plant 
Protection Organisation (‘EPPO’). This is necessary to ensure the identification of those pests, even in case of 
potential change of their names in the future.  
(8)  The protected zones recognised in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No 690/2008 (  3 ) and the 
respective pests listed in Part B of Annex I and Part B of Annex II to Directive 2000/29/EC have been reassessed 
by the Commission. The purpose of that reassessment was to conclude whether the respective pests correspond to 
the description of protected zone quarantine pest in Article 32(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031.  
(9)  That reassessment has been based on the respective applications by Member States to recognise, amend or revoke 
protected zones, regular survey reports submitted by the Member States, Commission inspections and several other 
scientific and technical data.  
(10)  Certain pests, some of which are listed in Annexes I and II to Directive 2000/29/EC, have been found to fulfil the 
conditions provided for in Article 32(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031, therefore they should be included in the 
list of protected zone quarantine pests. Those pests should be listed together with the respective codes assigned by 
EPPO, in order to ensure the identification of those pests, even in case of potential change of their names in the 
future.  
(11)  Regulation (EC) No 690/2008 should be repealed to avoid overlaps with the listing of protected zones in this 
Regulation.  
(12)  EPPO has made a reassessment of the pests listed in Section II of Part A of Annex II to Directive 2000/29/EC, the 
crops under point 3 and the pests under point 6 of Annex I to Directive 66/401/EEC (  4 ), as well as the pests under 
point 3 of Annex II to Council Directive 66/402/EEC (  5 ), Annex I to Council Directive 68/193/EEC (  6 ), as well as 
the pests listed in the acts adopted pursuant to Article 5(5) of Council Directive 98/56/EC (  7 ), Annex II to Council 
Directive 2002/55/EC (  8 ), Annex I and point B of Annex II to Council Directive 2002/56/EC (  9 ), and the acts 
adopted pursuant to point (c) of Article 18 of that Directive, point 4 of Annex I and point 5 of Part I of Annex II 
to Council Directive 2002/57/EC (  10 ), the acts adopted pursuant to Article 4 of Council Directive 2008/72/EC (  11 )

( 11 ) Council Directive 2008/72/EC of 15 July 2008 on the marketing of vegetable propagating and planting material, other than seed  
(OJ L 205, 1.8.2008, p. 28).  
( 12 ) Council Directive 2008/90/EC of 29 September 2008 on the marketing of fruit plant propagating material and fruit plants inten ded 
for fruit production (OJ L 267, 8.10.2008, p. 8). (13)  That reassessment was necessary to update the phytosanitary status of those pests in accordance with the most 
recent technical and scientific developments, and also to assess their compliance with the respective criteria of 
Article 36 of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031, in respect of the Union territory, and Section 4 of Annex I thereto.  
(14)  Certain pests, some of which are listed in those Directives, have been found to fulfil the conditions provided for in 
Article 36 of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031 in respect of the Union territory, and should therefore be included in the 
list of Union regulated non-quarantine pests (‘RNQPs’). In accordance with Article 37(7) of that Regulation, that list 
is to provide for specific categories of relevant plants for planting referred to in Directives 66/401/EEC, 
66/402/EEC, 68/193/EEC, 2002/55/EC, 2002/56/EC, 2002/57/EC, 2008/72/EC and 2008/90/EC.  
(15)  In certain cases, the respective plants for planting should not be introduced into, or moved within, the Union 
territory if the presence of the RNQPs or symptoms caused by RNQPs on them is above a certain threshold, as set 
out in Article 37(8) of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031. As set out further by that Article, that threshold is only to be 
set where it is possible for professional operators to ensure that the incidence of that RNQP on those plants for 
planting does not exceed that threshold and it is possible to verify whether that threshold is not exceeded in lots of 
those plants for planting.  
(16)  In accordance with Article 37(4) of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031, measures to prevent the presence of RNQPs on 
the plants for planting concerned, are to apply without prejudice to the measures adopted pursuant to Directives 
66/401/EEC, 66/402/EEC, 98/56/EC, 1999/105/EC, 2002/54/EC, 2002/55/EC, 2002/56/EC, 2002/57/EC, 
2008/72/EC and 2008/90/EC. Therefore, this Regulation should not affect the measures, adopted pursuant to 
those Directives, concerning inspections, sampling and testing of the plants for planting concerned, or the plants 
from which they originate, the origin of the plants for planting concerned from areas or sites free from, or with 
physical protection from, the RNQPs concerned, treatments of the plants for planting concerned, or the plants 
from which they originate, or the production of the plants for planting.  
(17)  Moreover, the provisions of this Regulation concerning RNQPs should not affect the exceptions for plants for 
planting, adopted pursuant to those Directives, from marketing requirements set out by those Directives 
concerning the supply of seed to official testing and inspection bodies, the supply of plants to providers of 
certain services, the movement of plants intended for scientific purposes, selection work, other tests or trial 
purposes, seed not finally certified, seeds subject to the exceptions of the provisions of Implementing Decision 
(EU) 2017/478 (  13 ) and plants shown to be intended for export.  
(18)  The introduction into the Union of the plants, plant products and other objects, from all or certain third countries, 
as listed in Part A of Annex III to Directive 2000/29/EC is prohibited.  
(19)  Those plants, plants products and other objects have been reviewed on the basis of any new evidence, their pest 
risk for the Union territory and the update of the list of Union quarantine pests.  
(20)  On the basis of that review, certain of those plants, plant products and other objects are therefore to be listed 
pursuant to Article 40(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031, together with the third countries, groups of third 
countries or specific areas of third countries to which that prohibition applies. Such prohibition is necessary 
because the phytosanitary protection of the Union cannot be guaranteed by applying less stringent measures in 
this regard.  
(21)  In view of the reassessment of Union quarantine pests, new provisions for the introduction into the Union of 
certain plants, plant products and other objects, and the respective special requirements, and provisions for the 
movement within the Union of certain plants, plant products and other objects, and the respective special 
requirements should be adopted pursuant to Article 41(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031.EN  10.12.2019 Official Journal of the European Union L 319/3  
( 13 ) Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2017/478 of 16 March 2017 releasing certain Member States from the obligation to apply 
to certain species Council Directives 66/401/EEC, 66/402/EEC, 68/193/EEC, 1999/105/EC, 2002/54/EC, 2002/55/EC and 
2002/57/EC on the marketing of fodder plant seed, cereal seed, material for the vegetative propagation of the vine, forest repr o­
ductive material, beet seed, vegetable seed and seed of oil and fibre plants respectively, and repealing Commission Decision 
2010/680/EU (OJ L 73, 18.3.2017, p. 29). (22)  The indication of CN codes should not be obligatory for the listing of the plants, plant products and other objects 
subject to special requirements for movement within the Union territory. This would be a proportionate approach 
because the CN codes are only necessary for the identification of those plants, plant products or other objects 
when they are introduced into the Union from a third country. Such approach would be also be in line with 
Article 80 of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031 pursuant to which no such codes are provided for the listing of those 
plants, plant products and other objects, for which a plant passport is required.  
(23)  The introduction of plants, plant products and other objects is prohibited in their respective protected zones and, 
where applicable, with regard to their third country of origin, as listed in Part B of Annex III to Directive 
2000/29/EC. Moreover, the plants, plant products and other objects, as listed in Part B of Annex IV to 
Directive 2000/29/EC, may only be introduced into the respective protected zones if they fulfil the respective 
special requirements.  
(24)  Those plants, plant products and other objects have been reviewed on the basis of any new evidence, their pest risk 
for the respective protected zones and the update of the list of the protected zones quarantine pests and the 
protected zones.  
(25)  On the basis of that review, certain of those plants, plant products and other objects, and the respective protected 
zones, should be listed in this Regulation as provided for in Article 53(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031, together 
with the third countries and groups of third countries of origin to which that prohibition applies.  
(26)  Moreover, certain of those plants, plant products and other objects, and the respective protected zones and special 
requirements, should be listed in this Regulation as provided for in Article 54(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031.  
(27)  A list of plants, plant products and other objects for which a phytosanitary certificate is required for introduction 
into the Union territory, and the respective third countries of origin or dispatch, is to be established pursuant to 
Article 72(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031.  
(28)  Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2019 requires a phytosanitary certificate for the introduction into the Union 
territory of plants, other than the plants included in the list referred to in Article 72(1), pursuant to the first 
subparagraph of Article 73 of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031. However, certain fruits have been found to fulfil the 
criteria set out in Annex VI to Regulation (EU) 2016/2031 and identified as plants which do not require a 
phytosanitary certificate. A phytosanitary certificate should therefore not be required for the introduction into 
the Union of the fruits listed in Annex II of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2019.  
(29)  For reasons of clarity, Article 2 and Annex II of that Regulation should be deleted, in order to avoid overlaps with 
this Regulation.  
(30)  A list of plants, plant products and other objects for which a phytosanitary certificate is required for introduction 
into the respective protected zones and the respective third countries of origin or dispatch, is to be established 
pursuant to Article 74(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031 Such a list will help to ensure clarity for the professional 
operators, competent authorities and all of other users of those plants, plant products and other objects.  
(31)  A list of plants, plant products and other objects for which a plant passport is required for movement within the 
Union territory is to be established pursuant to Article 79(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031. Such a list will help 
to ensure clarity for the professional operators, competent authorities and all other users of those plants, plant 
products and other objects.  
(32)  In order to refrain from imposing requirements on professional operators, those plant passports should not be 
required for the movement of seeds which are subject to derogations from the requirements of the respective 
Directives on the marketing of seeds. This is appropriate as this Regulation applies without prejudice to the 
measures adopted pursuant to those Directives and should not introduce for the professional operators additional 
certification burdens than the ones currently laid down in those Directives obligations.EN  L 319/4 Official Journal of the European Union 10.12.2019 
(33)  A list of plants, plant products and other objects for which a plant passport is required for being introduced into, 
or moved within, certain protected zones is to be established pursuant to Article 80(1) of Regulation (EU) 
2016/2031. Those plant passports should bear the designation ‘PZ’ to be distinguished from the plant 
passports required for the movement within the entire Union territory. Such a list will help to ensure clarity 
for the professional operators, competent authorities and all other users of those plants, plant products and other 
objects.  
(34)  In order to avoid the disruption of trade by changes in the requirements regarding RNQPs, a limited transitional 
period should be granted for seeds and other plants for planting that have already been produced in the Union, 
introduced into the Union or moved within the Union in accordance with the requirements concerning the 
presence of RNQPs applicable before 14 December 2019, the date of application of this Regulation. Those 
seeds and other plants for planting may continue to be introduced into, or moved within, the Union in accordance 
with those requirements for a limited period of time. It would also be proportionate to require that plant passports 
would only attest the compliance of those seeds and other plants for planting with the applicable requirements on 
Union quarantine pests, protected zone quarantine pests and measures adopted pursuant to Article 30 of Regu ­
lation (EU) 2016/2031. Such an approach would be necessary given the big amounts of seeds and other plants for 
planting which are in the course of production, or have been produced, before 14 December 2019, under the rules 
of the Directives on the marketing of seeds and other propagating material applicable before that date and when 
no plant passports were required concerning the presence of RNQPs. Those plants for planting have already been 
certified and it would be disproportionate to require their further certification under the new rules. A transitional 
period of one year would thus be necessary to ensure the smooth uptake of those plants for planting by the 
market and to facilitate the competent authorities and the professional operators to adapt to the new rules.  
(35)  This Regulation should enter into force on the third day following that of its publication in the  Official Journal of 
the European Union , to allow for the competent authorities and the professional operators the longest possible time 
to prepare for its application.  
(36)  For reasons of legal certainty, this Regulation should apply from the same date as Regulation (EU) 2016/2031, 
which is 14 December 2019.  
(37)  The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on 
Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,

PART A  
Measures to prevent the presence of RNQPs on fodder plant seed  
1.  Inspection of the crop  
(1) The competent authority, or the professional operator under the official supervision of the competent authority, shall 
carry out field inspections on the crop from which the fodder plant seed is produced concerning the presence of 
RNQPs in the crop to ensure that the presence of the RNQPs does not exceed the thresholds set out in this table:  
RNQPs or symptoms caused by RNQPs  Plants for planting (genus or 
species)  Thresholds for 
production of 
pre-basic seed  Thresholds for

The competent authority may authorise inspectors, other than the professional operators, to carry out the field 
inspections on its behalf and under its official supervision.EN  L 319/52 Official Journal of the European Union 10.12.2019 
(2) Those field inspections shall be carried out when the condition and the stage of development of the crop allow for 
an adequate inspection. There shall be at least one field inspection per year, at the most appropriate time for the 
detection of the respective RNQPs.  
(3) The competent authority shall determine the size, the number and the distribution of the portions of the field to be 
inspected in accordance with appropriate methods.  
The proportion of the crops for the production of seed to be officially inspected by the competent authority shall be 
at least 5 %.  
2.  Sampling and testing of fodder plant seed  
(1) The competent authority shall:  
(a) officially draw seed samples from lots of fodder plant seed;  
(b) authorise seed samplers to carry out sampling on its behalf and under its official supervision;  
(c) compare the seed samples drawn by itself with those of the same seed lot drawn by the seed samplers under 
official supervision as referred to in point (b);  
(d) supervise the performance of the seed samplers provided for in point (2).  
(2) The competent authority or the professional operator under official supervision shall sample and test the fodder 
plant seed in accordance with up to date international methods.  
Except for automatic sampling, the competent authority shall check-sample a proportion of at least 5 % of the seed 
lots entered for official certification. That proportion shall be as evenly spread as possible over natural and legal 
persons entering seed for certification, and the species entered, but may also be aimed at eliminating specific doubts.  
(3) For automatic sampling, appropriate procedures shall be applied and it shall be officially supervised.  
For the examination of seed for certification, samples shall be drawn from homogeneous lots. As regards the lot and 
sample weights, the table of Annex III to Directive 66/401/EEC shall apply.  
3.  Additional measures for certain plant species  
The competent authorities, or the professional operators under the official supervision of the competent authorities, shall 
carry out the following adidtional inspections or take any other actions for certain plant species to ensure that the 
requirements, concerning the respective RNQPs and plants for planting, are fulfilled.  
(1) the pre-basic, basic and certified seeds of  Medicago sativa  L. to prevent the presence of  Clavibacter michiganensis  ssp.  
insidiosus , and in order to ascertain that:  
(a) the seeds originate in areas known to be free from  Clavibacter michiganensis  spp.  insidiosus ; or  
(b) the crop has been grown on land on which no previous  Medicago sativa  L. crop has been present during the last
