PART 3 Importation from a third country¶

9 Scope of this Part¶

Subject to regulation 26, this Part applies in relation to the importation into England from a third country of any animal or product subject to official controls at border control posts.

10 Meaning and use of Common Health Entry Document “CHED”¶

1 A “Common Health Entry Document” (“CHED”) means a document, or an electronic or digital equivalent, in the format specified in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1715 laying down rules for the functioning of the information management system for official controls and its system components.

2 Where the imported consignment is required to be accompanied by a CHED to the premises of final destination, the operator responsible for the consignment must complete the relevant parts of the document prior to the physical arrival of the consignment.

3 The cases where and conditions under which the use of a CHED is required are specified in` Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/1602 supplementing Regulation (EU) 2017/625 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the Common Health Entry Document accompanying consignments of animals and goods to their destination.

4 Where a CHED is required, the operator responsible for the consignment must comply with the provisions of Article 56 of the Official Controls Regulation.

5 An electronic or digital equivalent refers to a CHED which is capable of being produced by the person responsible for the consignment at any time by electronic means or by use of a unique digital identifier, as defined in Article 3(27A) of the Official Controls Regulation.

11 Border Control Posts¶

1 A border control post is a place, together with the facilities contained at that place, that has been designated by the Secretary of State in accordance with Article 59 of the Official Controls Regulation.

2 If at any time the relevant authority is of the opinion that any part of the inspection facilities at the border control post no longer complies with the requirements for approval, the relevant authority may, in accordance with Articles 61 to 63 of the Official Controls Regulation, serve a notice on the operator—

a specifying the breach;

b providing a time limit within which the conditions must be complied with; and

c prohibiting the use of that part of the facilities until the conditions of the approval are complied with.

3 If the notice is not complied with, the Secretary of State may suspend the approval in relation to that part of the inspection facilities.

4 If the operator of a border control post is determined by the relevant authority to be in serious breach of the requirements relating to the performance of official controls for any of the categories of animal or product for which it has been designated, or the conditions of the approval, or if the operation of the border control post creates a risk to human or animal health or animal welfare, the Secretary of State must suspend the approval of the border control post and order its activities to cease for all, or specified, categories of animal or product ^F78....

5 In paragraph (2), “the relevant authority” means—

a in relation to animals, the Secretary of State; or

b in relation to products, the district council.

12 Appointment of official veterinary surgeons and official fish inspectors¶

1 The Secretary of State must appoint suitably trained veterinary surgeons to be official veterinary surgeons for any border control post authorised to import animals.

2 The district council for an area with a border control post authorised to import products must appoint suitably trained veterinary surgeons to be official veterinary surgeons for that post.

3 The appointment under paragraph (2) may be made by the Secretary of State rather than the district council if the approval for the border control post only permits the importation of animal by-products.

4 If the approval for the border control post permits the importation of any fishery products, aquatic invertebrates, live bivalve molluscs, live echinoderms, live tunicates and live marine gastropods and composite products containing processed fishery products intended for human consumption, the enforcement authority may appoint suitably trained environmental health officers or other persons who are appropriately trained to perform official controls or certain tasks related to other official activities, to be official fish inspectors for that post in relation to such products, and any such official fish inspector has all the powers of an official veterinary surgeon in relation to those products.

13 Place of importation¶

No animal or product may be brought into England other than through a border control post or a point of entry for which a border control post has been designated for that animal or product.

14 Notification of importation¶

1 The person responsible for a consignment of animals or products must notify , through the appropriate computerised information management system, a border control post of the expected date of its arrival at the border control post at least one working day before it is due to arrive; but where the person can provide evidence of a logistical constraint preventing such notification, that requirement may be satisfied by notification of its expected time of arrival at least four hours in advance.

^F152 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

3 The notification must be made by submitting the CHED with Part I completed.

4 In the case of a transhipment of products from one border control post to another, the person responsible for the consignment must notify the official veterinary surgeon at the border control post of destination of—

a the estimated time of arrival;

b the border control post at which the transhipment will be checked;

c the identification and location of the consignment; and

d the estimated time of departure.

15 Procedure on importation¶

1 When the consignment has been unloaded, the person responsible for the consignment must with reasonable expedition arrange for it, together with the relevant export health certificate, in the form published by the Secretary of State and amended from time to time, and other documentation specified for that consignment in assimilated direct legislation relating to importation, to be presented at the border control post inspection facilities to enable official controls in accordance with—

a Chapter 5 of the Official Controls Regulation, together with relevant implementing and delegated acts; and

b the checks required by Article 37(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1012.

2 Any operator responsible for the consignment must ensure that the consignment is presented for official controls at the border control post at a reasonable time during the working day.

3 The competent authority must carry out all necessary official controls specified in paragraph (1) and may only issue a CHED permitting entry if—

a the consignment complies with the requirements of the following, so far as relevant and when read with any other provisions of the legislation referred to below which apply in relation to such requirements—

i the legislation listed in regulation 7(2) of the TARP (ALF) Regulations 2022, as modified by Part 5 of those Regulations or by the legislation referred to in paragraph (ii);

ii any legislation made by the appropriate authority under the functions listed in the Schedule to the TARP (ALF) Regulations 2022, where applicable.

b the importation is not prohibited under paragraph (4); and

c the correct fee for the checks has been or will be paid.

4 In the case of live animals, the official veterinary surgeon must not issue a CHED permitting entry if—

a the animals are from a territory or part of a territory of a third country not included in a list drawn up in accordance with assimilated direct legislation for the species concerned or from which imports are otherwise prohibited under that legislation of approved third countries, or if imports from that country or territory are otherwise prohibited;

b the animals are suffering from or are suspected to be suffering from or infected by a contagious disease or a disease presenting a risk to human or animal health;

c the exporting third country has not complied with the requirements provided for in assimilated direct legislation relating to importation;

d the animals are not in a fit state to continue their journey; or

e the veterinary certificate or document accompanying the animals does not meet the requirements of assimilated direct legislation relating to importation.

5 If there are no legislative requirements relating to the consignment, the official veterinary surgeon must not issue a CHED unless the importation has been authorised in writing under this paragraph by—

a the Food Standards Agency, for any product for which only public health requirements apply; or

b the Secretary of State, for any other product or live animal.

6 An authorisation under paragraph (5)(a) may only be granted if the Agency is satisfied that the consignment does not pose a risk to human health.

7 An authorisation under paragraph (5)(b) may only be granted if the Secretary of State is satisfied that the consignment does not pose a risk to the animal health status of the United Kingdom.

8 The official veterinary surgeon must retain evidence of authorisation or refusal of a consignment for a period of three years from the date of the importation.

16 Removal from the border control post¶

1 No person may remove a consignment from the border control post unless it is accompanied by a CHED issued by the official veterinary surgeon, or the official fish inspector (as appropriate) in the case of a consignment of fish, and the movement is in accordance with that document.

2 The person transporting it from the border control post must ensure that the document accompanies the consignment and must transport it directly to the destination specified therein.

3 These requirements do not apply if the consignment is removed from the border control post under the authority of the relevant official veterinary surgeon or fish inspector (as appropriate).

4 In the case of live animals, the person responsible for the transport to the final destination must be in possession of the appropriate transport authorisation in accordance with Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) 1/2005 on the protection of animals during transport and related operations inside the vehicle.

5 In this regulation, requirements for a consignment to be “accompanied by a CHED” (and cognate expressions), in relation to a CHED in electronic or digital form, refer to the CHED being capable of being produced by the person responsible for the consignment at any time by electronic means or by use of a unique digital identifier, as defined in Article 3(27A) of the Official Controls Regulation.

17 Supervision and monitoring consignments¶

Where a consignment is required to be taken under supervision from a border control post to a specific destination in Great Britain—

a the movement must be under customs supervision if this is specified in the CHED; and

b on arrival, the occupier of the destination premises must immediately notify the appropriate authority of its arrival, and for this purpose “appropriate authority” means the Secretary of State (in relation to England), the Welsh Ministers (in relation to Wales) and the Scottish Ministers (in relation to Scotland).

18 Destination outside Great Britain ¶

1 This regulation relates to a consignment brought into England but intended for an ultimate destination outside Great Britain.

2 In the case of an imported animal, the person notifying its arrival must provide documentary evidence that the country or territory of destination will accept the animal, and the official veterinary surgeon at the border control post may refuse to accept the animal if this is not provided.

3 Imported products which are subject to animal health check requirements under regulation 15(3)(a), may be taken directly from the border control post to the destination outside Great Britain without a CHED, so long as the products do not remain for more than three days at an airport border control post or 30 days at a sea port border control post;

3A Products that are not subject to import check requirements, and which arrive at a border control post for an ultimate destination outside Great Britain, may be taken directly from the border control post to their destination without a CHED, so long as the products do not remain at the border control post for more than 90 days.

4 But if the consignment is intended to be sent to a destination in the British Islands, and the importation of the product into any of the territories of the British Islands is not permitted, the official veterinary surgeon must reject the consignment.

19 Unchecked consignments¶

The enforcement authority must seize any consignment—

a brought into England other than in accordance with regulation 13;

b removed from a border control post without a CHED or without the authority of the official veterinary surgeon or official fish inspector (as the case may be) at the post; or

c transported from the border control post to a destination other than that specified in the entry document.

20 Action following failure of checks or seizure – products¶

1 This regulation applies in relation to any consignment of a product if the checks at a border control post show that the consignment does not comply with the rules referred to in Chapter 5 of Title II of the Official Controls Regulation.

2 The official veterinary surgeon or the official fish inspector (as appropriate) must, after consultation with the importer or the importer’s representative, and in accordance with Article 68(1)(b) of the Official Controls Regulation, place the consignment under detention and refuse its entry into England.

3 The official veterinary surgeon or the official fish inspector (as appropriate) must order the person responsible for the consignment—

a to subject the consignment to special treatment in accordance with Article 71(1) and (2) or to any other measure necessary to ensure compliance with the rules referred to in Chapter 5 of Title II of the Official Controls Regulation, and, where appropriate and provided there is no risk to human or animal health, allocate the consignment for purposes other than those for which it was originally intended;

b where health conditions permit, to require the person in charge of the consignment to re-dispatch the product in accordance with Article 72 of the Official Controls Regulation from the same border control post to a destination outside Great Britain agreed with the person responsible for the consignment, using the same means of transport, within a maximum time limit of 60 days of the date of the official notification of the decision of the enforcement authority after arrival of the consignment at the border control post; or

c if the person responsible for the consignment gives immediate agreement, re-dispatch is impossible or the 60-day time limit has elapsed, to destroy the products.

4 The official veterinary surgeon or official fish inspector (as appropriate) may exceptionally authorise destruction, re-dispatch, special treatment, or any other measure that may be taken in respect of a consignment to be taken in respect of a part of the consignment only, provided that the action taken—

a is such as to ensure compliance;

b does not pose a risk to human or animal health; and

c does not disrupt official control operations.

5 Pending re-dispatch or confirmation of the reasons for rejection, the person responsible for the consignment must, at that person’s own expense, store the consignment under the supervision of the enforcement authority.

6 If a consignment of products is seized at a place other than a border control post under regulation 19, the enforcement authority must order that such consignment be retained or recalled, and placed under official detention without delay, and paragraphs (2) and (3) of this regulation apply.

22 Serious or repeated infringements and breach of maximum residue limits¶

1 If the official veterinary surgeon or official fish inspector (as appropriate) suspects that products entering Great Britain from a particular third country, part of a third country or establishment in a third country have been the subject of serious contraventions of any import requirement, or contraventions that form part of a series, or where those checks reveal that maximum residue levels have been exceeded, the enforcement authority may require extra physical checks and take samples for testing or analysis from subsequent consignments from the source concerned and take appropriate measures in accordance with Section 3 of Chapter 5 of Title II of the Official Controls Regulation.

2 If the official veterinary surgeon or official fish inspector (as appropriate) has reason to suspect fraudulent or deceptive practices by an operator responsible for a consignment, the Secretary of State may apply intensified official controls.

23 Action following failure of checks or seizure – animals¶

1 If the checks at a border control post show that an animal does not comply with the rules referred to in Chapter 5 of Title II of the Official Controls Regulation relating to that animal, or where such checks reveal an irregularity, the official veterinary surgeon must initially place the animal under detention, isolation or quarantine, as appropriate, where it must be kept, cared for or treated under appropriate conditions pending further official decision on the fate of the animal.

2 Unless immediate action is necessary in order to respond to a risk to human or animal health or animal welfare or to the environment, the official veterinary surgeon may, after consultation with the importer or the importer’s representative, order the person responsible for the consignment—

a to shelter, feed and water and, if necessary, treat the animal;

b if necessary, to place it in quarantine or isolate it for so long as is necessary to ensure that there is no risk to human or animal health; or

c to re-dispatch the animal in accordance with Article 72 of the Official Controls Regulation without delay.

3 If re-dispatch is impossible, in particular for welfare reasons, the official veterinary surgeon may order the importer or the importer’s representative to arrange for the slaughter of the animal to spare any avoidable pain, distress or suffering.

4 If an animal is seized under regulation 19 at a place other than a border control post, the enforcement authority must order the consignment to be retained or recalled, and placed under official detention without delay, and paragraphs (1) and (2) apply.

5 The official veterinary surgeon may exceptionally authorise partial destruction, re-dispatch, special treatment, or any other measure that may be taken in respect of a consignment of animals to be taken in respect of a part of any such consignment, provided that such action—

a is such as to ensure compliance with the import check requirements of the Official Controls Regulation and any relevant Implementing Regulations and Delegated Regulations made under it;

2 In a case within paragraph (1)(a), the importer must assist the officer with establishing the region of origin.

3 Where the appropriate enforcement authority or the Secretary of State is satisfied that imported animals or products constitute a risk to animal or public health, an authorised officer of that enforcement authority or the Secretary of State, as appropriate may, following written notice, take any reasonable action to ensure compliance with any rules laid down in accordance with Chapter 5 of Title II of the Official Controls Regulation, including—

g the recall, withdrawal, removal or destruction of products;

h the treatment of products for human consumption, the alteration of labels or the provision of corrective information to consumers;

i the temporary suspension or withdrawal of the registration or approval of an affected establishment, plant, holding or means of transport concerned, or of an authorisation of a transporter;

j the use of the products for purposes other than those for which they were originally intended.

4 An authorised officer of the enforcement authority or the Secretary of State must provide an affected business operator, or its representative, with—

a written notification of the decision concerning the action or measure to be taken in accordance with this regulation, together with the reasons for that decision; and

4 The Secretary of State must consider the report of the appointed person and promptly notify the owner of the outcome of the review and provide a copy of the report of the appointed person.

EXPLANATORY NOTE¶

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations revoke and replace the eight sets of Regulations specified in regulation 44.

They establish a system for trade between member States in live animals and genetic material (Part 2) and for the importation of live animals, genetic material and products of animal origin from outside the European Union (Part 3).

The European Union legislation required to be complied with before animals or goods can be released from control at the port of importation (the “border inspection post”) is listed in Schedule 1.

As before, the Secretary of State is empowered (in Part 4) to prohibit importation into England of any animal or product in the event of a disease outbreak outside the United Kingdom.

The Regulations are enforced by the Secretary of State, port health authorities, local authorities and the United Kingdom Border Agency in the circumstances set out in regulation 32.

The Regulations establish various offences, punishable on summary conviction to a fine up to the statutory maximum or on conviction on indictment to an unlimited fine (or in the case of disclosure relating to customs information imprisonment for up to three months)

A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no new impact on the private, voluntary or public sectors is foreseen.
