Documents required to Export Forage into Europe.

[Mainbale]

HI All,
Just asking if anyone is currently exporting forage into Europe.
Under the new post Brexit rules we are being asked for a health certificate, we have contacted the government bodies and Defra but no one seems sure what documentation is needed and who issues it.
If anyone could give us a heads up that would be much appreciated.

Ask your customer what their government require, no point in Dethra coming up with something that Johnny Foreigner doesn’t like.

Since we are no longer in the EU, I really don't expect that kind of product to be viable to export any longer. Driver's can't even take their sandwiches abroad in case they present a biohazard do it's unlikely they'll accept forage from the UK any more than Australia would. Welcome to brexit sir.

If you are the ‘exporter’ there will be info from APHA Carlisle about this.

perhaps it shouldve always been like it after all a discarded bushmeat sandwich out the car window could cause something like F&M

Trouble is the checking will be going out , but coming into country you can bring any disease or mutant plant ect cos they not fussed over this end
We're the friendlier neighbours to them to make their route thru as simple as poss. But when you head out there they want to cause grief , Rather ironic when the EU always bang the drum of being friendly neighbours .

Yes but the fault,big thing that leaps out there is that ours is not thorough enough by far.

Yes and the UK are breaking international law by not carrying out checks... no point EU bashing when its the UK's Gov (and the peoples) own fault.

Yep never has been , never will be when it comes to anything that may affect agri , cos its so low on their radar!

I’ve tried to avoid export stuff just lately but my partner in our business is having a lot of hassle having to reissue export health certificates for product of animal origin into the Netherlands and Brussels. His impression is that they are being deliberately awkward and not honouring existing agreements and not accepting loads.
Basically a couple of fingers to Britain are been handed out at the Border control posts.
If you have lambs, sell them now would be my tip.

It’s a total mess , I’m bring cresote timber into Ireland from Wales and it’s a nightmare , the cert needed is a sanitary cert, but I’d say what you need to look for is what ever cert is needed to bring in grain from a differant continent . There should be no differance in hay and grain . Just my opinion . It’s a mess but that’s what brexit voted for the ending of free trade , what way did you vote.

Doesn’t matter what it is. Go through a UK airport pre covid and most of the customs places were unmanned

Good tip on the lambs , lamb prices here have shot up €15 this week for export to France.

Check if you need a licence or phytosanitary certificate to export plants and plant products.

Daughter is a vet signed up to produce some of the new paperwork for a large haulage outfit and it appears the rules of engagement are still being written. She thinks it will be at least the end of the month before it settles down.
