Serbia: FAIRS Export Certificate Report
This report provides guidance on the certificate requirements for agricultural and food products imported into the Serbian market and includes the certificates that are standardized between the Serbian Ministry of Agriculture and Environmental Protection and the relevant US authorities (USDA/APHIS, USDA/FSIS, USDA/AMS, and FDA). In 2015, Serbia’s Veterinary Directorate officially recognized the United States as “negligible risk” for bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) and removed many of the BSE-related restrictions on imports or the transit of U.S. animal origin products and live animals. However, APHIS and the Serbian Ministry of Agriculture and Environmental Protection are still working on revising the veterinary health certificates relating to treated hides and skins, pet food and feedstuffs of animal origin, horses for breeding, beef and beef products, farmed aquaculture, game trophies, and “other” preparations of birds and ungulates.
