The Board of the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC) has approved new chapters of the unified veterinary requirements and forms of veterinary certificates for in vitro embryos of cattle (cattle) and small ruminants (SCM), according to the EEC website.
“The documents have been prepared on the basis of requests from business entities that have expressed interest in supplying these types of controlled goods to the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU),” the report says.
It is clarified that the requirements for in vitro bovine embryos and MRS embryos have not yet been defined either at the national level of the Member States or at the commission level, which made it difficult to import them into the territory of the union and free circulation on it.
In addition, the EEC updated the unified veterinary requirements and forms of veterinary certificates in accordance with the standards of the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) for large artiodactyls in terms of bovine spongiform encephalopathy, as well as zoo and circus animals in terms of epizootic welfare for contagious animal diseases.
