List of international control and supervisory agencies (hereafter referred to as ‘supervisory agencies’) approved by the Member States under Annex VIII to Regulation (EC) No 612/2009

(This list replaces the list published in the Official Journal of the European Union C 33 of 5 February 2014, p. 5)

(2015/C 8/06)

1.   GENERAL

Under Article 17(1)(b) and (2)(c) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 612/2009 of 7 July 2009 on laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of export refunds on agricultural products (1), supervisory agencies approved by the Member States are authorised to issue certificates certifying the unloading and importation of agricultural products qualifying for export refunds in third countries or, at least, their arrival at destination in third countries.

Furthermore, supervisory agencies approved and controlled by a Member State in accordance with Articles 18 to 23 of Regulation (EC) No 612/2009 or an official agency of the Member State shall be responsible for carrying out checks provided for in Article 3 of Commission Regulation (EU) No 817/2010 of 16 September 2010 laying down detailed rules pursuant to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 as regards requirements for the granting of export refunds related to the welfare of live bovine animals during transport (2).

The Member States are responsible for approving and monitoring these supervisory agencies.

Approval of a supervisory agency by one Member State is valid in all Member States. This means that certificates issued by approved supervisory agencies may be used throughout the Union, irrespective of the Member State in which the agency issuing the certificate is based.

For the information of Union exporters of agricultural products, the Commission periodically publishes a list of all the supervisory agencies approved by the Member States. The attached list was updated on 1 December 2014.

2.   NOTICE

The Commission draws the attention of exporters to the following:

| — | The fact that a particular supervisory agency appears on the list does not automatically guarantee that certificates issued by that agency are acceptable. Additional documentary evidence may be required. It may also become apparent later that certificates issued are inaccurate. |
