EPPO report on notifications of non-compliance


The EPPO Secretariat has gathered below the notifications of non-compliance for 2021 received since the previous report (EPPO RS 2021/031). Notifications have been sent via TRACES for the EU countries, and directly by Bosnia and Herzegovina. The EPPO Secretariat has selected notifications of non-compliance made because of the detection of pests. Other notifications of non-compliance due to prohibited commodities, missing or invalid certificates are not indicated. It must be pointed out that the report is only partial, as many EPPO countries have not yet sent their notifications. When a consignment has been re-exported and the country of origin is unknown, the re-exporting country is indicated in brackets. When the occurrence of a pest in a given country is not known to the EPPO Secretariat, this is indicated by an asterisk (*).
