COUNCIL DIRECTIVE
of 27November 1990
on the fixing of maximum levels for pesticide residues in and on
certain products of plant origin, including fruit and vegetables
(90/642/EEC)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic
Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (3),
Whereas crop production plays a very important role in the Community:
Whereas the yield from that production is continually affected by
harmful organisms and weeds;
Whereas it is essential to protect plants and plant products against these
organisms, not only to prevent a reduction in yield or damage to theproducts harvested but also to increase agricultural productivity;
Whereas one of the most important methods of protecting plants and
plant products from the effects of these organisms is the use of chemicalpesticides; whereas, however, mandatory maximum levels should be setas low as is consistent with good agricultural practice;
Whereas, however, their favourable effect on plant production is not the
only effect of these pesticides, since they are generally dangeroussubstances or preparations with dangerous side-effects;
Whereas a large number of these pesticides and of their metabolites or
breakdown products may have harmful effects on consumers of plantproducts; whereas these pesticides should not be used in circumstanceswhich present a risk to human or animal health and to the environment;
Whereas the Community should encourage the use of alternative,
organic farming methods;
Whereas Council Directive 76/895/EEC of 23 November 1976 relating
to the fixing of maximum levels for pesticide residues in and on fruit
and vegetables (
4), as last amended by Directive 89/186/EEC (5), fixes
maximum levels for the said residues and ensures the free movementthroughout the Community of products with levels less than, or equal to,these maximum levels; whereas, however, the said Directive permits
Member States, in cases where they consider this justified, to authorize
products containing levels higher than the maximum levels to be put intocirculation within their own territories;
Whereas this last provision leads in some cases to continuing differences
between Member States as regards the maximum permissible levels for
these pesticide residues, which can help to create barriers to trade andthus hinder the free movement of goods within the Community;whereas, with a view to achieving the single market in 1992, thesebarriers should be removed;
Whereas, for these reasons, the possibility for Member States to
authorize higher levels should be withdrawn and maximum levelsmandatory in all Member States should be fixed for certain activesubstances in and on fruit and vegetables, which must be observed whenthese products are put into circulation;1990L0642 — EN — 04.05.2000 — 011.001 — 2
(1) OJ No C 46, 25. 2. 1989, p. 5.
(2) OJ No C 260, 15. 10. 1990, p. 56.
(3) OJ No C 329, 30. 12. 1989, p. 11.
(4) OJ No L 340, 9. 12. 1976, p. 26.
(5) OJ No L 66, 10. 3. 1989, p. 36.
▼B
Whereas, again with a view to ensuring the free movement of goods
within the Community, mandatory maximum levels should also be fixedfor certain pesticides in and on certain other products of plant origin;
Whereas, moreover, observance of the maximum levels will ensure that
products can move freely and that the health of consumers and ofanimals is properly protected;
Whereas, however, the determination of mandatory maximum levels for
pesticide residues requires lengthy technical consideration, so that such
levels cannot be imposed immediately upon the pesticide residuesregulated by Directive 76/895/EEC;
Whereas it is therefore necessary to adopt separate rules providing for
these mandatory maximum levels, with a view to transferring pesticide
residues from Directive 76/895/EEC to these separate rules progres-
sively as mandatory levels are determined for them;
Whereas, accordingly, this Directive does not affect Directive 76/895/
EEC, which shall continue to apply to certain pesticide residues not
subject to this Directive;
Whereas the establishment of a list of pesticide residues and their
maximum levels is a matter falling within the competence of theCouncil; whereas, however, this list should not include pesticideresidues still covered by Directive 76/895/EEC;
Whereas it is appropriate to apply this Directive to products intended for
export to third countries, except in certain cases where it can beestablished that importing countries require particular treatments whichwould necessitate higher maximum levels than those fixed for theCommunity pursuant to this Directive; whereas, however, it is not
appropriate to apply this Directive to products intended for the
manufacture of products other than foodstuffs and feedingstuffs, or forsowing or planting;
Whereas, in order to guarantee compliance with this Directive when
products are put into circulation, Member States must take suitable
control measures; whereas the necessary inspections should be
programmed, carried out and their results reported in accordance withCouncil Directive 89/397/EEC of 14 June 1989 on the official inspectionof foodstuffs (
1);
Whereas Community methods of sampling and analysis should be
established and, in the case of analysis methods, used at least as
reference methods; whereas the establishment of these methods is atechnical and scientific implementing measure which should bedetermined by means of a procedure involving close cooperationbetween the Member States and the Commission within the Standing
Committee on Plant Health; whereas the analysis methods should
comply with the criteria set out in the Annex to Council Directive 85/591/EEC of 20 December 1985 concerning the introduction ofCommunity methods of sampling and analysis for the monitoring offoodstuffs intended for human consumption (
2);
Whereas future modifications of the list of products of plant origin in or
on which pesticide residues may be present must be adopted by theCouncil;
Whereas Member States should be allowed to reduce temporarily the
levels laid down if they subsequently prove dangerous to human or
animal health; whereas it is appropriate in these cases also to establish
close cooperation between the Member States and the Commissionwithin the Standing Committee on Plant Health,1990L0642 — EN — 04.05.2000 — 011.001 — 3

HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:
Article 1
1. This Directive shall apply to products within the groups specified
in column 1 of Annex I, examples of which are given in column 2, in so
far as products in those groups, or the parts of product described in
column 3, may contain certain pesticide residues.
The Directive shall also apply to the same products after drying or
processing or after inclusion in a composite food in so far as they maycontain certain pesticide residues.
2. This Directive shall apply without prejudice to:
(a) the provisions of Council Directive 64/54/EEC of 5 November 1963
on the approximation of the laws of the Member States concerningthe preservatives authorized for use in foodstuffs intended for humanconsumption (
1), as last amended by Directive 85/585/EEC (2),
relating to biphenyl (diphenyl), orthophenylphenol, sodium ortho-phenyl phenate and 2-(4-thiazolyl)-benzimidazole (thiabendazole),
which shall continue to regulate the use of those substances until
they and their maximum levels are included in the list referred to inparagraph 1;
(b) the provisions of Council Directive 74/63/EEC of 17 December
1973 on the fixing of maximum permitted levels for undesirablesubstances and products in feedingstuffs (
3), as last amended by
Directive 87/519/EEC (4);
(c) the provisions of Directive 76/895/EEC;
(d) the provisions of Council Directive 86/362/EEC of 24 July 1986 on
the fixing of maximum levels for pesticide residues in and oncereals (
5), as last amended by Directive 88/298/EEC (6);
(e) the provisions of Commission Directive 91/321/EEC of 14 May
1991 on infant formulae and follow-on formulae (7) and Commission
Directive 96/5/EC of 16 February 1996 on processed cereal-based
foods and baby foods for infants and young children (8). However,
until maximum levels have been established in accordance withArticle 6 of Directive 91/321/EEC or Article 6 of Directive 96/5/ECthe provisions of Article 5a (1) and (3) to (6) of this Directive shall
apply for the products concerned.
3. This Directive shall also apply to products referred to in paragraph
1 intended for export to third countries. However, maximum pesticideresidue levels set in accordance with this Directive shall not apply in the
case of products treated before export where it can be satisfactorily
proved that:
(a) the third country of destination requires that particular treatment in
order to prevent the introduction of harmful organisms into itsterritory; or
(b) the treatment is necessary in order to protect the products against
harmful organisms during transport to the third country ofdestination and storage there.1990L0642 — EN — 04.05.2000 — 011.001 — 4

4. This Directive shall not apply to the products referred to in
paragraph 1 where it can be established by appropriate evidence thatthey are intended for:
(a) the manufacture of products other than foodstuffs and animal feed;
or
(b) sowing or planting.
Article 2
For the purposes of this Directive:
(a) ‘pesticide residues’ shall mean residues of pesticides and of their
metabolites, and breakdown or reaction products, which are presentin or on the products referred to in Article 1.
(b) ‘putting into circulation’ shall mean any post-harvest handing over,
whether or not for a consideration, of the products referred to inArticle 1.
Article 3
1. The products in the groups or, where applicable, the parts of
products referred to in Article 1 shall not contain, from the time they are
put into circulation, pesticide residue levels higher than those specifiedin the list referred to in Annex II.
The list of pesticide residues concerned and their maximum levels shall
be established in Annex II in accordance with the procedure laid downin Article 10a having regard to current scientific and technical
knowledge. A pesticide residue will be included on the list for as long
as Directive 76/895/EEC fixes a maximum level for that residue.
2. In the case of dried and processed products for which maximum
levels are not explicitly fixed in Annex II, the maximum residue levelapplicable shall be that laid down in Annex II, taking into account,respectively, the concentration caused by the drying process or the
concentration or dilution caused by processing. A concentration or
dilution factor covering the concentration and/or dilution caused bycertain drying or processing operations may be determined for certaindried or processed products in accordance with the procedure laid downin Article 10a.
3. In the case of compound foods which contain a mixture of
ingredients and for which maximum residue levels are not fixed, the
maximum residue levels applied may not exceed the levels laid down inAnnex II, taking into account the relative concentrations of theingredients in the mixture and also the provisions of paragraph 2.
4. Member States shall ensure, at least by check sampling,
compliance with the maximum levels referred to in paragraph 1. The
necessary inspections and monitoring shall be carried out in accordance
with Council Directive 89/397/EEC of 14 June 1989 on the officialcontrol of foodstuffs (
1), except for Article 14 thereof, and Directive 93/
99/EEC of 29 October 1993 on the subject of additional measuresconcerning the official control of foodstuffs (

programmes for the following calendar year. These forward
programmes shall specify at least:
— the products to be inspected and the number of inspections to
be carried out,
— the pesticide residues to be inspected,
— the criteria applied in drawing up these programmes.
(b) By ►M931 December ◄each year, the Commission shall
submit to the Standing Committee on Plant Health a draftrecommendation setting out a coordinated Community moni-toring programme identifying the taking of specific samples to beincluded in the national monitoring programmes. The recom-
mendation shall be adopted in accordance with the procedure laid
down in Article 10. The basic objective of the Communitymonitoring programme shall be to make optimum use atCommunity level of the sampling of plant products included inthe groups listed in Annex I, produced in the Community orimported into it, when problems have been identified, in order to
ensure compliance with the maximum levels for pesticide
residues set out in Annex II.
3. By 31 August each year, Member States shall send to the
Commission and the other Member States the results of the analyses of
the samples taken during the previous year under their nationalmonitoring programmes and under the coordinated Communitymonitoring programme. The Commission shall collate and combinethis information together with the results of the checks carried out in
accordance with Directives 86/362/EEC and 86/363/EEC and analyse:
— infringements of the maximum residue levels, and
— the average actual levels of residues and their relative values with
respect to the maximum residue levels established.
The Commission should progressively work towards a system, when
preparing the coordinated monitoring programme, which could permitthe estimation of actual pesticide dietary exposure.
The Commission shall forward this information to the Member States in
the framework of the Standing Committee on Plant Health before►
M931 December ◄for each year, for review and adoption of any
necessary measures such as:
— any action to be taken at Community level in the case of reported
infringements of the maximum levels,
— the desirability of publication of the collated and compiled
information.
4. The following may be adopted in accordance with the procedure
laid down in Article 9:
(a) amendments to paragraphs 2 and 3 of this Article in so far as these
amendments concern the dates for notification;
(b) detailed implementing rules necessary for proper functioning of the
provisions of paragraphs 2 and 3.
5. Not later than 31 December 1999 the Commission shall forward to
the Council a report on the application of this Article, accompanied, if
necessary, by any appropriate proposals.
Article 5
Member States may not prohibit or impede the putting into circulation
within their territories of the products referred to in Article 1 on thegrounds that they contain pesticide residues, if the quantity of suchresidues in and on the products or parts of products concerned does notexceed the maximum levels specified in the list referred to in Article 1.1990L0642 — EN — 04.05.2000 — 011.001 — 6

Article 5 a
Where for a product belonging to a group referred to in Annex I, a
provisional maximum residue level applicable throughout the Commu-nity is set by the Commission in accordance with the provisions ofArticle 4 (1) (f) of Council Directive 91/414/EEC of 15 July 1991
concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (
1),
this level will be indicated in Annex II with a reference to thatprocedure.
Article 5 b
1. For the purposes of this Article a Member State of origin shall be
defined as the Member State in whose territory a product specified in
Article 1 (1) is either legally produced and marketed or put into freecirculation and a Member State of destination as the Member State intowhose territory such product is introduced and put into circulation foroperations other than transit to another Member State or third country.
2. Member States shall introduce arrangements for establishing
maximum residue levels, whether permanent or temporary, for productsreferred to in Article 1 (1), brought into their territories from a Member
State of origin, taking into account good agricultural practice in the
Member State of origin, and without prejudice to conditions necessary toprotect the health of consumers, in cases where no maximum residuelevels have been established for these products in accordance with theprovisions of Articles 3 (1) or 5a.
3. Where
— no maximum residue level has been established for a product
referred to in Article 1 (1) in accordance with Articles 3 (1) or 5a,
and
— that product, which satisfies the maximum residue levels applied by
its Member State of origin, has been subjected in the Member Stateof destination to measures whose effect is to prohibit or restrict its
putting into circulation, on the grounds that the product contains
pesticide residue levels in excess of the maximum residue levelaccepted in the Member State of destination, and
— either the Member State of destination has introduced new maximum
residue levels or has altered the levels laid down in its legislation, or
it has made changes to its controls which are disproportionate and/ordiscriminatory compared with those for its domestic production, orthe maximum residue level applied by the Member State ofdestination differs substantially from the corresponding levels
established by other Member States, or the maximum residue level
applied by the Member State of destination represents a dispropor-tionate level of protection compared with the level of protectionapplied by the Member State to pesticides carrying a similar risk orto similar agricultural products or foodstuffs,
the following exceptional provisions shall apply:
(a) the Member State of destination shall communicate the measures
adopted to the other Member State concerned and the Commissionwithin 20 days of their application. The notification shall documentthe facts involved;
(b) on the basis of the notification referred to in (a), the two Member
States concerned shall contact each other without delay in order toremove, whenever possible, the prohibitive or restrictive effect ofthe measures adopted by the Member State of destination by meansof measures agreed between them; the Member States shall submitall the requisite information to each other.
Within a period of three months of the notification referred to in (a),
the Member States concerned shall inform the Commission of theresult of such contracts and in particular the measures they intend to1990L0642 — EN — 04.05.2000 — 011.001 — 7

apply, if any, including the maximum residue level they have
agreed. The Member State of origin shall inform the other MemberStates of the result of such contacts;
(c) the Commission shall immediately refer the matter to the Standing
Committee on Plant Health and, if possible, submit a proposal aimedat establishing in Annex II a temporary maximum residue level,which shall be adopted in accordance with the procedure laid down
in Article 10a.
In its proposal, the Commission shall take account of existing
technical and scientific knowledge on the matter and in particulardata submitted by the Member States with an interest, especially thetoxicological assessment and estimated ADI, good agricultural
practice and the trial data which the Member State of origin used to
establish the maximum residue level, together with the reasons givenby the Member State of destination for deciding on the measures inquestion.
The period of validity of the temporary maximum level shall be laid
down in the legal act adopted and may not exceed four years. That
period may be linked to the supply, by the Member State of originand/or other Member States with an interest, of the trial datarequired by the Commission in order to set the maximum residuelevel in accordance with Article 3 (1). At their request, theCommission and the Member States shall be kept informed
regarding the programme of trials established.
4. Any measure provided for in paragraphs 2 or 3 shall be taken by a
Member State with due regard for its obligations under the Treaty, in
particular Articles 30 to 36 thereof.

notified by Member States in accordance with paragraph 3 of thisArticle.
6. Detailed measures for the implementation of the procedure set out
in this Article may be adopted in accordance with the procedure laid
down in Article 9.
Article 6
1. The sampling methods necessary for carrying out the checks
provided for in Article 3 on fruit and vegetables shall be those laid down
by Commission Directive 79/700/EEC (
2). The sampling methods
necessary for carrying out such checks on products other than fruitand vegetables, and the methods of analysis for all products, shall bedetermined in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 9.
The existence of Community methods of analysis shall not preclude
Member States from using other tested and scientifically valid methods
provided that this does not hinder the free movement of products
recognized by virtue of Community methods as complying with therules provided for in this Directive. In the event of differences in theinterpretation of results, those obtained by the use of Communitymethods shall prevail.
2. The methods of analysis determined under paragraph 1 shall
comply with the criteria set out in the Annex to Directive 85/591/EEC.
3. Member States shall inform the other Member States and the
Commission of the other methods used pursuant to paragraph 1.1990L0642 — EN — 04.05.2000 — 011.001 — 8
