List of international control and supervisory agencies approved by the Member States under
Article 16(5) of Regulation (EC) No 800/1999

(This list replaces that published in Official Journal of the European Communities C 330 of 18.11.1999, page 3)

(2000/C 295/02)

1. GENERAL

Under Article 16(1)(b) and (2)(c) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 800/1999 (1), control and super-
visory 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, of their arrival at destination in third countries.

The Member States are responsible for approving control and supervisory agencies.

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

For the sake of transparency, the Commission periodically publishes a list of all the control agencies
approved by the Member States. The attached list was adopted on 1 September 2000.

2. NOTICE

The Commission draws the attention of exporters to the following:

(cid:151) The fact that a particular control and 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.

(cid:151) Agencies may be taken off the list at any time. Before settling on a particular agency, exporters are

accordingly advised to check with the national authorities that it is still approved.

(cid:151) Exporters can obtain further information on any agency from the national authority which

approved it.
