The quarantine lists of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) which is composed of Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Russia were first published in November 2016 (EPPO RS 2017/146) and revised in March 2018 (RS 2019/050). They were further amended in August 2019 and May 2021. As a result two pests were added to the 'A1 List of quarantine pests which are absent from the EAEU territory' and two to the 'A2 List of quarantine pests which are of limited distribution in the EAEU territory'. This Regulation entered into force on the 2 January 2022.
