COMMISSION DECISION

of 30 January 2002

concerning animal health conditions and veterinary certification for imports of live bovine and
porcine animals from certain third countries

(notified under document number C(2002) 334)

(Text with EEA relevance)

(2002/199/EC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

(2)

Health protection measures concerning bluetongue in
respect of a region of Canada were established by
Decision 88/212/EEC.

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Com-
munity,

Having regard to Council Directive 72/462/EEC of 12 Decem-
ber 1972 on health and veterinary inspection problems upon
importation of bovine, ovine and caprine animals and swine,
fresh meat or meat products from third countries (1), as last
amended by Directive 97/79/EC (2), and in particular Articles 6,
7, 8 and 11 thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

The animal health conditions and veterinary certification
for import of domestic animals of the bovine and
porcine species from Canada, Switzerland, Iceland, New
Zealand, Cyprus and certain European countries were
established by Commission Decision 83/494/EEC (3) at
last amended by Decision 88/212/EEC (4), Commission
Decision 92/460/EEC (5) as last amended by Decision
94/664/EC (6), Commission Decision 92/463/EEC (7) as
last amended by Decision 93/469/EEC (8), and Com-
mission Decisions 93/491/EEC (9), 96/650/EC (10),
98/372/EC (11) and 1999/539/EC (12) respectively.

(3) With a view to the internal market, numerous health
measures have been established in the framework of
trade within the Community. The realisation of that
objective necessitates, in parallel, an adaptation of the
animal health conditions required for importation of
from third
domestic bovine and porcine animals
countries.

(4)

(5)

That adaptation must take into account the different
epidemiological situations in the third countries con-
cerned, and indeed in the different parts of
their
territories. The existence of similar health situations in
the various parts of those countries must also be taken
into account in establishing a new system of health
guarantees.
therefore, appropriate to establish
different health certificates in accordance with the
conditions required for the importation of domestic
bovine and porcine animals from those different categor-
ies of countries or parts of countries.

is,

It

In order to clarify and simplify the Community legis-
lation,
it is appropriate to group together as far as
possible the animal health conditions required for
imports of domestic bovine and porcine animals from
third countries and to repeal the specific Decisions
applying to those countries.

Imports of domestic bovine and porcine animals should
not be allowed unless a programme of control of
residues in the exporting third country has been
approved by the Commission.

from the Czech Republic related to the occurrence of
classical swine fever in domestic and feral pigs and its
persistence in feral pigs in certain parts of the territory
of the Czech Republic.

The guarantees provided by exporting countries as
regards certain diseases should be equivalent to those
required for intra-Community trade.

The veterinary authorities of the countries concerned
must confirm that for certain prescribed periods their
countries or parts of them have been free from the
relevant diseases referred to in Article 6 of Council
Directive 72/462/EEC and that no vaccinations have
been carried out against those diseases during the past
12 months.

Those veterinary authorities must undertake to notify
the Commission and the Member States without delay,
of the confirmation of the occurrence of any of those
diseases above, or of the adoption of vaccination against
any of them, or of any proposed changes in their import
rules concerning bovine or porcine animals or the semen
or embryos thereof. Those authorities should in certain
circumstances periodically supply the Commission with
updated information on monitoring and disease-control
plans for those diseases.

(14) The Czech authorities have informed the Commission
on the results of the plan in force to control and
eradicate classical swine fever from their territory, and
the results of this plan suggest that classical swine fever
is under control.

(15) The Czech authorities have informed the Commission
that a surveillance plan will continue to be enforced in
their territory to verify any possible reappearance of this
disease either in domestic or feral pigs and to ensure the
rapid adoption of appropriate disease control measures,
if necessary.

(16)

It is therefore necessary to amend the conditions for
imports of live animals of porcine species from some
areas of the Czech Republic to take into account the
evolution of the epidemiological situation in relation to
classical swine fever.

(10) Certificates drawn up by official veterinarians of third
countries should comply with certain conditions laid
down in Directive 72/462/EEC.

(17)

Following a Community veterinary inspection mission,
it appears that the animal health situation in Chile
compares favourably with that in the Community in
particular concerning porcine diseases.

(11) As regards standards of certification, which are necessary
for valid certification and to prevent fraud, the rules and
principles applied by certifying officers in third countries
should provide guarantees which are at least equivalent
to those laid down in Council Directive 96/93/EC of
17 December 1996 on the certification of animals and
animal products (13).

(18)

In addition the competent veterinary authorities of Chile
have confirmed that for the prescribed periods their
country has been free from the relevant diseases referred
to in Article 6 of Directive 72/462/EEC and that no
vaccinations have been carried out against those diseases
during the past 12 months.

(12)

Pending the adoption of further measures by the Com-
munity, Member States may apply the additional health
guarantees applicable for certain diseases in certain parts
of the territory of the Community.

(13) Commission Decision 98/372/EC (14), as last amended
by Decision 2001/600/EC (15), established inter alia con-
ditions for import of live animals of the swine species

(13) OJ L 13, 16.1.1997, p. 28.
(14) OJ L 170, 16.6.1998, p. 34.
(15) OJ L 210, 3.8.2001, p. 51.

(19) The competent veterinary authorities of Chile have also
undertaken to notify the Commission and the Member
States without delay, of the confirmation of the occur-
rence of any of the above diseases, or of the adoption of
vaccination against any of them, or of any proposed
changes in their import rules concerning porcine animals
or the semen or embryos thereof.

(20)

In order to ensure acceptable animal health and welfare
conditions, imports should be limited to porcines for
breeding and production coming by plane, either directly
or via countries authorised to import porcines into the
Community.

(21) Chile can therefore be authorised to import into the
Community live porcine animals for breeding or pro-
duction purposes.

(22) The measures provided for in this Decision are in
accordance with the opinion of the Standing Veterinary
Committee,

2. Member States shall require that animals which are
submitted to tests referred to in Annex IX, as required by the
specific model of certificate applicable, are continuously
isolated, under conditions approved by an official veterinarian
of the country of origin, from all cloven-hoofed animals not
intended for export to the Community or not of equivalent
health status to such animals, from the time of the first of such
tests to the time of loading.
