THE EUR OPEAN COMMISSION,
Havi ng regar d to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Havi ng regard to Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 28 Januar y 2002 laying 
down the general principles and requirements of food law, establishing the European Food Safety Author ity and laying

Whereas:
(1) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 (3)lays down rules on the temporar y increase of official 
controls at the entr y into the Union on certain food and feed of non-animal origin from certain third countr ies 
liste d in Annex I to that Implementing Regulation, and on the imposition of special conditions govern ing the entr y 
into the Union of certain consignments of food and feed from certain third countr ies due to the risk of 
contamination by mycotoxins, including aflatoxins, pesticide residues, pentach lorophenol and dioxins, and 
microbiological contamination, listed in Annex II to that Implementing Regulation.
(1)OJ L 31, 1.2.2002, p. 1.
(2)OJ L 95, 7.4.2017, p. 1.
(3)Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 of 22 Octo ber 2019 on the temporar y increase of official controls and 
emergen cy measures governing the entr y into the Union of certain goods from certain third countr ies implem enting Regulations (EU) 
2017/625 and (EC) No 178/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Commission Regulations (EC) 
No 669/2009, (EU) No 884/2014, (EU) 2015/175, (EU) 2017/186 and (EU) 2018/1660 (OJ L 277, 29.10.2019, p. 89).EN Offi cial Jour nal of the European Union 13.6.2022 L 158/1  (2) Article 12 of Imple menting Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 provides that the lists set out in the Annexes to that 
Implementing Regulation are to be reviewed at regular inter vals not exceeding six months, in order to take into 
account new information related to risks to human health and non-compliance with Union legislation, such as the 
data resulting from notifi cations received through the Rapid Aler t System for Food and Feed (‘RASFF’) established 
by Regulation (EC) No 178/2002, as well as data and information concer ning consignments and the results of the 
documentar y, identity and physical checks communicated by the Member States to the Commission.
(3) Recent notificati ons through the RASFF indicate the existence of a serious direct or indirect risk to human health 
deriving from some food or feed. Additionally , official controls performe d by Member States on some food and feed 
of non-animal origin in the second semeste r of 2021 indicate that the lists set out in Annex es I and II to 
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 should be amended in order to protect human health in the Union.
(4) Certain consignments of food and feed of non-animal origin are exem pt from official controls in accordance with 
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793, if they do not exceed 30 kg. Such consignments include trade samples, 
laboratory samples, displa y items and consignments intended for scientifi c purposes. In the light of exper ience with 
the application of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793, Member State s have indicated that in certain cases 
such consignments exceed 30 kg. Since such consignments are not intended to be placed on the mark et, it is 
unnecessar ily burdensome to perform official controls on such consignments. Theref ore, the weight limit for 
exem ption from official controls in accordance with Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 should be increased 
to 50 kg. In addition, where such consignments excee d 50 kg, Member State s should be able to accept such 
consignments, provid ed the Member State of destination has issued an author isation in advance and adequate 
control arrange ments are in place to ensure that the consignments are not placed on the market.
(5) Consignments of food and feed which form part of passeng ers’ personal lugg age and are intended for personal 
consum ption or use, and non-commercial consignments of food or feed sent to natural persons, which are not 
intended to be placed on the market, are exem pt from official controls in accordance with Implementing Regulation 
(EU) 2019/1793, if they do not exceed 30 kg. Exper ience with the application of Implementing Regulation (EU) 
2019/1793 shows that the weight limit of 30 kg leads to the exclusion of a wide range of consignments from such 
controls. The weight limit of 30 kg also goes beyond standard baggag e allowances in international passeng er 
transpor t. In case of non-commercial consignments of 30 kg sent to natural persons, it is difficult to ensure by way 
of official controls that parts of such consignments are not placed on the mark et. Theref ore, the weight limit for 
consignments which form part of passengers’ personal lugg age, and for non-commercial consignments sent to 
natural persons should be reduced to a level that reflects more adequat ely the intended personal use of the 
consignments and the physical proper ties of the consignments.
(6) Where exem ptions from official controls at border control posts for certain goods are grant ed, conditions for these 
exem ptions, such as adequate control arrangements, should be established to ensure that there are no unaccep table 
risks to human and animal health from the entr y of such goods into the Union.
(7) In relation to the term ‘consignment’, Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 provides several definitions, whic h 
leads to uncer tainty and diffe rences in application. Article 3, point (37), of Regulation (EU) 2017/625 already 
provid es a definition of ‘consignment’. Theref ore, for the purpose of clarity, the additional definitions of 
‘consignment’ in Article 2(2) of Imple menting Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 should be delet ed.
(8) The Combined Nomenclature (‘CN’) codes 2008 19 13 40 and 2008 19 93 40 can only be used for mixtures 
containing almonds or pistachios but not for mixtures containing groundnuts. Since only mixtures containing 
groundnuts are likely to pose a risk of contamination by aflatoxins, these CN codes should be delet ed for the entr ies 
for Argentina in Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 and for Egypt, Ghana, Gambia, India and 
Sudan in the table in point 1, of Annex II to that Implementing Regulation.EN Offi cial Jour nal of the European Union L 158/2 13.6.2022  (9) In relation to consignments of oranges from Egypt, data from RASFF notifications and information regarding official 
controls performe d by Member States indicate the emergence of new risks to human health, due to a possible 
contamination by pesticide residues. It is theref ore necessar y to require an increased level of official controls on 
entr ies of those commodities from Egyp t. Such commodities should theref ore be included in Annex I to 
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793, with a frequency of identity and physical checks set at 20 % of 
consignments entering the Union.
(10) In relation to consignments of hazelnuts from Georgia, a high frequency of non-com pliance with the relevant 
requirements provided for in Union legislation with respect to contamination by aflatoxins was detected during 
official controls performed by Member State s in accordance with Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) 
2019/1793. It is theref ore appropr iate to increase the frequency of identity and physical chec ks to be performed on 
such consignments to 30 %.
(11) Palm oil from Ghana has been subject to an increased level of official controls due to the risk of contamination by 
Sudan dyes since Apr il 2016. The official controls carried out on that commodity by the Member States show a 
persist ent high rate of non-comp liance since the establishment of the increased level of official controls. Those 
controls provid e evidence that the entr y of that commodity into the Union constitutes a serious risk for human 
health.
(12) It is theref ore necessar y, in addition to the increased level of official controls, to provide for special conditions in 
relation to the impor tation of palm oil from Ghana. In particular , all consignments of palm oil from Ghana should 
be accompan ied by an official certificate stating that all the results of sampling and analyses show compliance with 
Union requirements. The results of sampling and analyses should be attache d to that certificate. Theref ore, the entr y 
on palm oil from Ghana in Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 should be delet ed and transferr ed 
to Annex II to that Implementing Regulation, with a frequency of identity and physical checks set at 50 % of 
consignments entering the Union.
(13) In relation to consignments of rice from India and Pakistan, the data resulting from notifi cations in the RASFF and 
information regar ding official controls performed by Member State s indicate the emergence of new risks to human 
health, due to a possible contamination by pesticide residues. It is theref ore necessar y to require an increased level 
of official controls on entr ies of this commodity from India and Pakistan. Such commodity should theref ore be 
included in Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793, with a frequency of identity and physical checks 
set at 5 % of consignments entering the Union.
(14) The potential health risks arising from contamination of rice from India and Pakistan by aflatoxins and ochrato xine 
A is not limited to certain types of rice classifie d under CN code 1006 10 79. Theref ore, to ensure efficient 
prote ction against pote ntial health risks arising from contamination of rice from India and Pakistan by aflatoxins 
and ochrat oxine A, the relevant CN code in Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 should be 
extende d to cover all types of rice. Due to the extensi on of the CN code and the volumes traded, the administrative 
burden for Member State s is expect ed to increase signif icantly . Theref ore, the frequency of controls should be 
decreased to 5 % of consignments entering the Union, as such frequency will provide sufficient information for an 
assessment of risks associated with possible contamination of rice by aflatoxins and ochrat oxine A.
(15) In relation to consignments of yardlong beans (Vigna unguiculata ssp. sesquipedalis, Vigna unguiculata ssp. unguiculata) 
and guava (Psidium guajava) from India, the data resulting from notifications in the RASFF and information rega rding 
official controls performed by Member State s indicate the emerg ence of new risks to human health, due to a possible 
contamination by pesticide residues. It is theref ore necessar y to require an increased level of official controls on 
entr ies of those commodities from India. Such commodities should theref ore be included in Annex I to 
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793, with a frequency of identity and physical checks set at 20 % of 
consignments entering the Union.EN Offi cial Jour nal of the European Union 13.6.2022 L 158/3  (16) Nutmeg from India, under CN codes 0908 11 00and 0908 12 00, has been subject to an increased level of official 
controls due to the risk of contamination by aflatoxins since July 2019. The offici al controls carried out by the 
Member States and available information show improvements in compl iance with the relevant requirements 
provid ed for in Union legislation. Those controls and that information provide evidence that the entr y of this 
foodstuff into the Union no longer constitut es a serious risk to human health. Consequently , it is not necessar y to 
continue to require that all consignments of nutmeg from India, under CN codes 0908 11 00and 0908 12 00, are 
to be accompan ied by an official certificate stating that all the results of samp ling and analyses show compl iance 
with Commission Regulation (EC) No 1881/2006 (4). At the same time, Member States should continue to carry 
out controls to ensure that the current level of compl iance will be maintained. Theref ore, the entr y concer ning 
nutmeg from India, under CN codes 0908 11 00 and 0908 12 00, in the table in point 1, of Annex II to 
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 should be delet ed and transferr ed to Annex I to that Imp lementing 
Regulation, with a frequency of identity and physical checks set at 30 % of consignments entering the Union.
(17) In relation to consignments of peppers of the genus Capsicum (other than sweet) from Thailand, a high frequency of 
non-com pliance with the relevant requirements provided for in Union legislation with respect to contamination by 
pesticide residues was detected during official controls performed by Member States in accordance with Annex I to 
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793. It is theref ore appropr iate to increase the frequency of identity and 
physical chec ks to be perf ormed on such consignments to 30 % of consignments entering the Union.
(18) Several CN codes do not match the commodities refer red to in certain entr ies in Annex I to Implementing 
Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 and are theref ore redundant. The following CN codes should be delet ed in Annex I to 
that Implementing Regulation: CN code ex 0807 19 00 70in the entr y on galia melon (C.melo var.reticulatus) from 
Honduras, CN code ex 0709 99 90 25in the entr y on gotuk ola (Centella asiatica) from Sri Lanka and CN code 
1211 90 86 10in the entr y on dried oregano from Turke y.
(19) To allow for a more precise identification of commodities subject to increased official controls, it is appropr iate to 
specify the TARIC sub-division for CN code ex 0709 99 90in the entr y on drumstic ks (Mor inga oleifera) from India 
and for CN code ex 1211 90 86 in the entr y on gotuk ola (Centella asiatica) from Sri Lanka in Annex I to 
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793.
(20) In relation to consignments of nutmeg from Indonesia, a high frequency of non-com pliance with the relevant 
requirements provided for in Union legislation with respect to contamination by aflatoxins was detected during 
official controls performed by Member State s in accordance with the table in point 1, of Annex II to Implementing 
Regulation (EU) 2019/1793. It is theref ore appropr iate to increase the frequency of identity and physical checks to 
be performe d on such consignments to 30 % of consignments entering the Union.
(21) The potential health risk from contamination by ethylen e oxide affects mixtures of food additives containing locust 
bean gum or guar gum. Theref ore, in the columns refer ring to ‘food and feed (intended use)’ and ‘CN code’ in the 
table in point 1, of Annex II to Imp lementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 in the entr y relat ed to India, the catego ry 
‘mixtures of food additives containing locust bean gum or guar gum’ and relevant CN codes for mixtures of food 
additives should be added. Equally , in the entr ies relat ed to Mala ysia and to Turke y, the catego ry ‘mixtures of food 
additives containing locust bean gum’ and relevant CN codes for mixtures of food additives should be added. A 
frequency of identity and physical chec ks should be set at 20 % for such consignments entering the Union from 
India, Mala ysia and Turke y.
(22) In relation to spices from India, CN code 0910 covers commodities in the form of roots, flowers and leaves, such as 
turmer ic (curcuma) root. Taking into account that no contamination by ethylene oxide was detected during official 
controls performed by Member States in accordance with the table in point 1, of Annex II to Implemen ting 
Regulation (EU) 2019/1793, such commodities can be excl uded from increased official controls. Theref ore, it is 
appropr iate to indicate in Annex II to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 that only dried spices from India 
should be subject to official controls at border control posts, with a frequency of identity and physical checks set at 
20 % of consignments entering the Union.
(4)Commission Regulation (EC) No 1881/2006 of 19 December 2006 setting maximum levels for certain contaminants in foodstuffs 
(OJ L 364, 20.12.2006, p. 5).EN Offi cial Jour nal of the European Union L 158/4 13.6.2022  (23) In relation to instant noodles from South Korea and Vietnam, in order to ensure clarity concer ning the type of 
noodles subject to increased controls, and to excl ude from official controls other varieties of noodles, such as wheat 
noodles, egg noodles, vermicelli and other types of such products which cannot be classified as instant noodles and 
which are declared under the same CN code 1902 30 10, it is appropr iate to provid e clarifications in the columns 
refer ring to ‘food and feed (intended use)’ , ‘CN code’ and ‘TARIC sub-division’ in the relevant entr ies in the table in 
point 1, of Annex II to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793.
(24) In order to ensure consistency and clarity, it is appropr iate to replace Annex es I and II to Implementing Regulation 
(EU) 2019/1793 in their entirety by the text set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
(25) In order to allow entr y into the Union of consignments whic h have already been dispatched from the countr y of 
origin or from another third countr y if that countr y is diffe rent from the countr y of origin, when this Regulation 
enters into force, and so as to take into account the possibility to kno w and compl y with this Regulation, it is 
appropr iate to provid e for a transitional period for consignments of palm oil from Ghana, mixtures of food 
additives containing locust bean gum or guar gum from India and mixtures of food additives containing locust bean 
gum from Mala ysia and Turke y, whic h are not accompan ied by the results of sampling and analyses and an official 
certificate. At the same time, public health continues to be prote cted for such consignments of palm oil from 
Ghana, which remain subject to identity and physical checks at a frequency of 50 % of consignments entering the 
Union.
(26) Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 should theref ore be amended according ly.
(27) The measures provid ed for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committ ee on 
Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,
