                COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) …/...
                                       of 17.12.2019
    supplementing Regulation (EU) 2016/429 of the European Parliament and of the
   Council, as regards animal health requirements for movements within the Union of
                          terrestrial animals and hatching eggs

   1.   CONTEXT OF THE DELEGATED ACT
        Regulation (EU) 2016/429 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March
        2016 on transmissible animal diseases and amending and repealing certain acts in the
        area of animal health (‘Animal Health Law1’) lays down rules on transmissible
        animal diseases and rules for animal health requirements for movements within the
        Union of terrestrial animals and hatching eggs.
        Chapters 3, 4 and 5 of Title I of Part IV of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 empower the
        Commission to adopt delegated acts supplementing the aforementioned rules. Since
        these rules are all interrelated, it is important to lay them down in the same delegated
        act, in the interests of consistency and transparency and to avoid duplications.
        The rules laid down in this Delegated Regulation are largely based on those laid
        down in existing Union acts establishing animal health requirements for movements
        within the Union of terrestrial animals and hatching eggs, as these rules have proven
        effective in preventing the spread of listed diseases within the Union. The rules have
        been adapted to the new legal framework, taking account of lessons learned, updates
        of international standards, scientific progress and recent EFSA opinions.
   2.   CONSULTATIONS PRIOR TO THE ADOPTION OF THE ACT
        The Commission had several meetings and exchanges with the Expert Group on
        animal health (E00930). The draft delegated regulation was also made available to
        the European Parliament and the Council, neither of which submitted any comments.
        There were a number of meetings with a range of stakeholders as part of the work of
        the Animal Health Advisory Committee, at which the main elements of the draft act
        were illustrated and discussed.
        In addition, stakeholders’ comments on the draft delegated regulation were collected
        in the context of the Better Regulation feedback mechanism during the period
        between 25 June 2019 and 23 July 2019. 56 feedbacks were received in total,
        including opinions of the following stakeholders: Fédération Française des

   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2016/429 of the European Parliament and of the Council of
   9 March 2016 on transmissible animal diseases and amending and repealing certain acts in the
   area of animal health (‘Animal Health Law2’), and in particular the second subparagraph of
   Article 3(5), Article 125(2), Article 131(1), Article 132(2), Article 135, Article 136(2), Article
   137(2), Article 140, Article 144(1), Article 146(1), Article 147, Article 149(4), Article 154(1),
   Article 156(1), Article 160, Article 162(3) and (4), Article 163(5)(b) and (c) and Article
   164(2) thereof,
   Whereas:
   (1)     Regulation (EU) 2016/429 lays down rules for the prevention and control of animal
           diseases that are transmissible to animals or humans. In Chapters 3-5 of Title I of Part
           IV, it lays down the animal health requirements for movements within the Union of
           kept and wild terrestrial animals and germinal products thereof. The Regulation also
           empowers the Commission to adopt rules to supplement certain non-essential elements
           of that Regulation by means of delegated acts. It is therefore appropriate to adopt such
           rules in order to ensure the smooth functioning of the new legal framework established
           by Regulation (EU) 2016/429.
   (2)     The rules and risk mitigation measures laid down in this Regulation are required to
           supplement the animal health requirements laid down in Chapters 3-5 of Title I of Part
           IV of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 as regards the movements within the Union of kept
           and wild terrestrial animals and of hatching eggs, to ensure that those commodities do
           not pose a significant risk of spread of listed diseases referred to in Article 5(1) and
           Annex II of the same Regulation, as amended by Commission Delegated Regulation
           (EU) 2018/16293 and categorised in accordance with Article 9(1)(d) of Regulation
           (EU) 2016/429 by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/18824.

           Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2018/1629 of 25 July 2018 amending the list of diseases set
           out in Annex II to Regulation (EU) 2016/429 of the European Parliament and of the Council on
           transmissible animal diseases and amending and repealing certain acts in the area of animal health
           (‘Animal Health Law’) (OJ L 272, 31.10.2018, p. 11).

           Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1882 of 3 December 2018 on the application of
           certain disease prevention and control rules to categories of listed diseases and establishing a list of
           species and groups of species posing a considerable risk for the spread of those listed diseases (OJ L
           308, 4.12.2018, p. 21).

 ---pagebreak---        Regulation (EU) 2016/429 aims to provide a simpler and more flexible regulatory
       framework comparing to the one applying prior to its adoption, while at the same time
       ensuring a more risk-based approach to animal health requirements, and improved
       animal disease preparedness, prevention and control. It also aims to collect the rules
       on animal diseases in a single act, rather than their being scattered over a number of
       different acts. The rules laid down in this Regulation concerning certain germinal
       products, notably hatching eggs, follow the same approach. The content of the rules is
       substantively linked, since they are to apply to all operators moving kept or wild
       terrestrial animals or hatching eggs. In the interests of simplicity and transparency, as
       well as to facilitate the application of the rules and avoid duplication, they should be
       laid down in a single act rather than in a number of cross-referenced separate acts.
   (3) Article 5(1) and Annex II to Regulation (EU) 2016/429, as amended by Commission
       Delegated Regulation (EU) 2018/1629, provide the list of animal diseases of special
       relevance for Union intervention, while Commission Implementing Regulation (EU)
       2018/1882 categorises them on the basis of the specific measures to apply to them, and
       lists the animal species to which those rules should apply. Category D diseases are
       considered to pose a considerable risk of spread when animals are moved between
       Member States.
   (4) Eradication programmes exist for the eradication of category B or C diseases. The
       rules for these programmes are laid down in [C(2019)4056 Commission Delegated
       Regulation (EU) 2019/… of …5 supplementing Regulation (EU) 2016/429 of the
       European Parliament and of the Council as regards rules for surveillance, eradication
       programmes, and disease-free status for certain listed and emerging diseases]. These
       eradication programmes apply to an establishment, zone or Member State, depending
       on the disease in question, and the measures required include certain animal health
       guarantees for movements of animals. The Delegated Regulation mentioned above
       also sets out the rules for the recognition of disease-free Member States and zones
       following the successful completion of the respective eradication programme. This
       Regulation should therefore also provide for such animal health guarantees in respect
       of movements of animals to other Member States or zones carrying out eradication
       programmes or having a recognised disease-free status.
   (5) To mitigate the risk of spread of disease between Member States, it is necessary to lay
       down in this Regulation supplementary animal health requirements concerning the
       diseases referred to in recitals (3) and (4) above, the animal species listed for the
       respective disease in Regulation (EU) 2018/1882 and eradication programmes and
       disease-free status. The relevant standards recommended in the Terrestrial Animal
       Health Code of the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) should be taken into
       account.
   (6) Article 125 of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 sets out the required disease prevention
       measures in relation to transport of animals, and empowers the Commission to lay
       down supplementary requirements for cleaning and disinfecting means of transport of
       kept terrestrial animals and biosecurity measures to mitigate the possible risks arising
       from animal transport operations within the Union. It is necessary, therefore, to lay
       down in this Regulation more detailed rules on structural requirements for means of

       Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/… of … supplementing Regulation (EU) 2016/429 of

       and disease freedom for certain listed and emerging diseases

 ---pagebreak---        transport and containers and more detailed biosecurity requirements for animal
       transport operations, and to provide for certain exemptions. Similar rules also apply to
       operators engaged in the transport of certain germinal products, notably hatching eggs
       of poultry and captive birds, and such rules should also be laid down in this Regulation
       on the basis of Article 157(3) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429.
   (7) Requirements for cleaning and disinfection of means of transport and biosecurity
       measures to mitigate the possible risks arising from certain animal transport operations
       were laid down in the rules that applied prior to Regulation (EU) 2016/429, in
       particular Council Directives 64/432/EEC6, 91/68/EEC7, 2009/156/EC8                           and
                       9
       2009/158/EC for transport operations of bovine, porcine, ovine, caprine and equine
       animals, poultry and hatching eggs. Those requirements have proven to be effective in
       preventing the risk of spread of animal diseases within the Union through transport
       operations. It is therefore appropriate to maintain the substance of those requirements
       and adapt them to transport operations of all kept terrestrial animals and hatching eggs.
   (8) Article 132(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 requires that the Commission determines
       a maximum timeframe within which the operator of a slaughterhouse receiving kept
       ungulates and poultry for slaughter from another Member State should ensure that
       those animals are slaughtered. This Regulation should therefore provide for such a
       maximum timeframe within which animals should be slaughtered, to ensure that their
       health status would not compromise the health status of the animals at the place of
       destination. Regulation (EU) 2016/429 also lays down rules for the movement of
       consignments of ungulates susceptible to infection with Bluetongue virus (serotypes 1-
       24), which may have a specific risk of spread due to the vector-borne transmission of
       the disease. This Regulation should therefore lay down certain specific provisions on
       the slaughtering of those animals.
   (9) In respect of movements to other Member States of kept ungulates and poultry, Article
       131(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 empowers the Commission to lay down rules
       concerning residency periods, the period of time necessary to limit the introduction of
       kept ungulates or poultry into establishments prior to movement, and supplementary
       animal health requirements to mitigate the risk of spread of listed diseases as referred
       to in Article 9(1)(d) thereof. It is therefore necessary to lay down appropriate measures
       in this Regulation to safeguard the health of animals and prevent the spread of disease
       through movements of ungulates, poultry and captive birds. These measures should
       take account of the rules that applied prior to the application of Regulation (EU)
       2016/429. Such rules for ungulates, poultry and captive birds were laid down in
       Directives 64/432/EEC, 91/68/EEC and 2009/158/EC, Council Directive 2009/156/EC
       and, in part, 92/65/EEC10. Where relevant, those rules should introduce new or
   6
       Council Directive 64/432/EEC of 26 June 1964 on animal health problems affecting intra-Community
       trade in bovine animals and swine (OJ L 121, 29.7.1964, p. 1977).

        and standards or the list of diseases provided for in Article 5(1) of Regulation (EU)
        2016/429 and Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2018/1629 and the diseases’
        categorisation subject to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1882.
   (10) Similarly, Articles 160(2) and 164(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 empower the
        Commission to adopt delegated acts laying down animal health requirements for
        movements to other Member States of germinal products of poultry and captive birds,
        i.e. hatching eggs. This Regulation must also therefore provide for those rules.
   (11) As a baseline, movements of terrestrial animals to another Member State should take
        place from the establishment of origin directly to the place of destination in that
        Member State. By way of derogation, however, this movement may be interrupted,
        and animals may undergo assembly operations. These operations represent a specific
        risk for spreading animal diseases. Article 135 of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 requires
        the Commission to adopt delegated acts laying down rules supplementing those
        provided for in Articles 133 and 134 thereof for assembly operations in respect of kept
        ungulates and poultry, where those animals are being moved to another Member State.
        It is therefore necessary to lay down such requirements in this Regulation.
   (12) Under the rules applicable prior to Regulation (EU) 2016/429, set out in Directives
        64/432/EEC, 91/68/EEC and 2009/156/EC, some consignments of ungulates did not
        move directly from an establishment of origin to an establishment of destination.
        Dealers, assembly centres and marshalling centres grouped animals of the same health
        status, which had arrived in consignments from different establishments, for dispatch
        to their respective destinations. The rules laid down in those Directives have proven
        effective in preventing the spread of transmissible animal diseases within the Union.
        Accordingly, the main substance of those rules should be maintained, but updated to
        take account of experience gained in their application and current scientific
        knowledge. Account should be taken of Article 133 of Regulation (EU) 2016/429,
        which provides that operators may subject kept ungulates and poultry to a maximum
        of three assembly operations during a movement from a Member State of origin to
        another Member State.
   (13) In addition, derogation from the rules on assembly operations should be provided
        under Article 140(b) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 for ungulates participating in
        exhibitions and sporting, cultural and similar events, as alternative risk-mitigation
        measures in place reduce the risk that those operations pose in terms of spreading
        listed diseases. These derogations are provided for in this Regulation.
   (14) Article 136(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 empowers the Commission to lay down
        detailed rules for the movement between Member States of certain kept terrestrial
        animals other than ungulates and poultry.
   (15) Prior to the application of Regulation (EU) 2016/429, Union rules for movement
        between Member States of certain kept terrestrial animals including primates, captive
        birds, honeybees and bumble bees, dogs, cats and ferrets were laid down in Directive
        92/65/EEC. Those rules have proven to be effective in minimising the risk of spread of
        listed diseases between Member States. Accordingly, the main substance of those rules
        should be maintained in this Regulation, but updated to take account of the practical
        requirements laid down in specific Community rules referred to in Annex A (I) to Directive
        90/425/EEC (OJ L 268, 14.9.1992, p. 54).
EN                                               7                                                 EN
 ---pagebreak---         experience gained in their application. In addition, this Regulation should provide
        possibilities for derogations in cases where alternative risk-mitigation measures are put
        in place.
   (16) Article 3(5) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 empowers the Commission to lay down
        rules to ensure that Part IV thereof is correctly applied to movements of pet animals,
        other than non-commercial movements. This Regulation, therefore, must provide for
        certain such rules.
   (17) Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1882 lists the species of carnivores posing a
        considerable risk of spread of Echinococcus multilocularis and of rabies virus when
        they are moved between Member States. Supplementary animal health requirements
        should therefore be provided for other carnivores to mitigate the risk of the spread of
        those diseases between Member States.
   (18) Article 137(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 requires the Commission to lay down
        detailed rules in addition to those referred to in Article 137(1) thereof for movements
        of kept terrestrial animals into confined establishments and for movements of kept
        terrestrial animals into those confined establishments, where risk-mitigation measures
        are in place to guarantee that such movements do not pose a significant risk to the
        health of kept terrestrial animals within that confined establishment and the
        surrounding establishments.
   (19) Prior to the application of Regulation (EU) 2016/429, Union rules for movements of
        terrestrial animals kept in approved bodies, institutes or centres were laid down in
        Directive 92/65/EEC. Articles 95 and 137 of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 establish the
        concept of a ‘confined establishment’ corresponding to an ‘approved body, institute or
        centre’ referred to in Article 2(1)(c) of Directive 92/65/EEC. Accordingly, the main
        substance of those former rules should be maintained, but should be updated to take
        account of the practical experience gained in their application. Account should also be
        taken of the relevant standards recommended for primates in the Terrestrial Animal
        Health Code of the OIE.
   (20) Article 138(3) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 empowers the Commission to lay down
        rules for the granting of derogations by the competent authority of the place of
        destination, supplementing those referred to in Article 138(1) and 138(2) thereof, in
        relation to movement of kept terrestrial animals for scientific purposes. Prior to the
        application of Regulation (EU) 2016/429, Directive 92/65/EEC provided that dogs,
        cats and ferrets which are to be moved for scientific purposes to another Member State
        do not have to be vaccinated against rabies, and dogs do not have to have been treated
        against infestation with Echinococcus multilocularis where such animals were
        destined for approved bodies, institutes or centres. This Regulation should provide for
        a similar derogation.
   (21) Article 140(a) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 empowers the Commission to lay down
        specific requirements supplementing the rules laid down in Articles 126 to 136 thereof
        for movements of kept terrestrial animals intended for circuses, exhibitions and
        sporting events.
   (22) Prior to the application of Regulation (EU) 2016/429, Union rules for movements of
        terrestrial animals kept in circuses and animal acts were laid down, based on Directive
EN                                               8                                                EN
 ---pagebreak---         92/65/EEC, in Commission Regulation (EC) No 1739/200511 repealed by Commission
        Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/203512 as from 21 April 2021. Given that those
        animals are currently moved to other Member States without an accompanying animal
        health certificate when the circus or animal act to which they belong travels, the
        present Regulation should maintain the possibility of such intra-Union movements. It
        is therefore appropriate to lay down in this Regulation the animal health requirements
        for movements to other Member States of terrestrial animals kept in travelling circuses
        or animal acts and to provide for a derogation from the animal health certification
        requirements as provided for in Article 143(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429.
   (23) Prior to the application of Regulation (EU) 2016/429, Union rules for movements of
        captive birds intended for exhibition in another Member State were laid down in
        Directive 92/65/EEC and other acts.
   (24) To prevent the risk of spread of listed diseases relevant to the movements of captive
        birds between Member States, it is appropriate in this Regulation to maintain Union
        rules for movements of captive birds intended for exhibition in another Member State.
        In addition, this Regulation should also lay down specific provisions for birds of prey
        attending flight hunting exhibitions in another Member State and for racing pigeons to
        be moved to sporting events in other Member States.
   (25) Article 144(1)(a) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 empowers the Commission to grant
        derogations from animal health certification requirements, provided for in Article
        143(1) thereof, for kept terrestrial animals moved between Member States.
   (26) Currently, in accordance with the rules laid down in Directive 2009/156/EC, registered
        equine animals may be moved without an accompanying animal health certificate
        between Member States which, on a reciprocal basis, have implemented an alternative
        control system providing relevant animal health guarantees equivalent to those laid
        down in the animal health certificate. This Regulation should provide for a similar
        derogation. However, special conditions should be established for movement of those
        animals, including the consent of the Member State of destination.
   (27) Article 144(1)(c) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 empowers the Commission to lay
        down the requirements for animal health certification for movements to other Member
        States of kept terrestrial animals other than ungulates, poultry and animals intended for
        confined establishments in cases where an animal health certificate is imperative in
        order to ensure that the movement in question complies with the animal health
        requirements provided for in Articles 124 to 142 of Regulation (EU) 2016/429. This
        Regulation should therefore establish requirements for animal health certification
        which would allow movements to other Member States of consignments of captive
        birds, honeybees, bumble bees (except bumble bees from approved environmentally
        isolated bumble bee production establishments), primates, dogs, cats, ferrets and other
        carnivores.
   11
        Commission Regulation (EC) No 1739/2005 of 21 October 2005 laying down animal health
        requirements for the movement for circus animals between Member States (OJ L 279, 22.10.2005, p.
        47).

        Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/2035 of 28 June 2019 supplementing Regulation (EU)
        2016/429 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards rules for establishments keeping
        terrestrial animals and hatcheries, and the traceability of certain kept terrestrial animals and hatching
        eggs (OJ L 314, 5.12.2019, p. 115-169).
EN                                                     9                                                          EN
 ---pagebreak---    (28) Article 164(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 also empowers the Commission to lay
        down the animal health certification and notification requirements for movements to
        other Member States of germinal products of kept terrestrial animals other than
        bovine, ovine, caprine, porcine and equine animals and germinal products of poultry.
        This Regulation should therefore establish requirements for animal health certification
        which would allow movements to other Member States of consignments of hatching
        eggs of captive birds.
   (29) Movements to other Member States of carnivores other than dogs, cats and ferrets
        should also be allowed in cases where there is no authorised anti-rabies vaccine for
        those carnivores in the Member State of origin and the vaccination is carried out in
        accordance with Article 10(1) of Directive 2001/82/EC13 which provides for the use of
        medicinal products outside the terms of the marketing authorisation.
   (30) Article 146(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 requires the Commission to lay down
        detailed rules and additional information on the content of animal health certificates
        for different species and categories of kept terrestrial animals and for specific types of
        movements. Article 162(3) of the same Regulation requires the Commission to adopt
        delegated acts concerning the information to be contained in the animal health
        certificate for movements between Member States of hatching eggs, taking into
        account the minimum information which must be included in that animal health
        certificate pursuant to Article 162(1). Therefore it is necessary to establish the content
        of the certificates that are to accompany consignments of kept terrestrial animals and
        hatching eggs when those consignments are moved to another Member State.
   (31) Article 147 of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 empowers the Commission to adopt
        delegated acts concerning specific measures derogating from, or supplementing, the
        obligation of operators to ensure that animals are accompanied by an animal health
        certificate for the particular types of movements of kept terrestrial animals. This
        Regulation should therefore lay down rules for animal health certification for
        movements of ungulates and poultry through establishments carrying out assembly
        operations provided for in Article 133 of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 prior to reaching
        their final place of destination.
   (32) To ensure that kept terrestrial animals certified for export to a third country and being
        transported through another Member State to the external border of the Union fulfil
        the animal health requirements for movement within the Union, operators should
        ensure that consignments of those animals are accompanied by animal health
        certificates providing attestations at least as strict as those required for the movement
        of kept ungulates or poultry intended for slaughter in the Member State where the exit
        point is located.
   (33) Article 149(4) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 empowers the Commission to adopt
        delegated acts laying down rules on the documentary, identity and physical checks and
        examinations to be carried out by the official veterinarian in relation to different
        species and categories of kept terrestrial animals in order to verify compliance with the
        animal health requirements. Taking into account the scope of this Regulation, which
        extends to hatching eggs, this Regulation therefore needs to apply this provision by
        establishing the necessary rules for this purpose, including the timeframes for carrying
        out such checks and examinations and for the official veterinarian’s issuing of animal
   13
        Directive 2001/82/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 November 2001 on the
        Community code relating to veterinary medicinal products (OJ L 311, 28.11.2001, p. 1).

        and of hatching eggs, and the duration of the validity of animal health certificates,
        including conditions for its extension.
   (34) Articles 152, 153 and 163 of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 require operators to inform
        the competent authority in their Member State of origin in advance of the intended
        movement to another Member State of kept terrestrial animals and of hatching eggs,
        and to provide all the necessary information to enable that competent authority to
        notify the movement of kept terrestrial animals and of hatching eggs to the competent
        authority of the Member State of destination. Therefore, this Regulation should lay
        down detailed rules concerning the requirements for advance notification by operators,
        the information necessary to notify such movements and the emergency procedures for
        such notifications.
   (35) Articles 153(2) and (4), 154(1)(c) and 163(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 provide for
        the use of the ‘Traces’ system for notification purposes when consignments of kept
        terrestrial animals and of hatching eggs are intended to be moved to other Member
        States. Traces is the integrated computerised veterinary system as provided for in
        Commission Decisions 2003/24/EC14 and 2004/292/EC15. Since Article 131 of
        Regulation (EU) 2017/625 of the European Parliament and of the Council16 provides
        for the establishment of an information management system for official controls
        (IMSOC), which will incorporate functions of the Traces system, this Regulation
        should refer to IMSOC instead of Traces.
   (36) Article 155 of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 sets out the conditions for the movement of
        wild terrestrial animals from a habitat in one Member State to a habitat or an
        establishment in another Member State. This Regulation should lay down the animal
        health, certification and notification requirements for such movements in accordance
        with the powers laid down in Article 156(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429.
   (37) This Regulation should be applicable from 21 April 2021 in accordance with the date
        of application of Regulation (EU) 2016/429,
