The draft Delegated Regulation indicates for  which food listing of  the country of  origin, listing  of  the  establishment  and/or  certification  is  required  for  entry  into  the  European Union. It also sets the conditions for such listings.
The  draft  Implementing  Regulation  (EU)  establishing  lists  of  third  countries  or  regions thereof  authorised  for  the  entry  into  the  European  Union  of  certain  animals  and  goods intended for human consumption and amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/759 as regards these lists lays down the list of countries authorised to enter specific food into the European Union.

The  draft  Regulations  intend  to  provide  continuity  of  the  current  import  conditions  in Regulation (EC) No 854/2004 but extend the list of food of animal origin subject to these harmonised EU import conditions with insects, reptile meat and composite products.
