Importing Products of Animal Origin (POAO) from EU to GB Composites

As you are aware, the transition period with the European Union (EU) came to an end on 31 December 2020, with new import controls being introduced in stages from January until July 2021.

SPS Borders & Boundaries Programme at DEFRA invite you to join their webinar:

Importing Products of Animal Origin (POAO) from the European Union to Great Britain with a focus on composite products

The webinar for POAO will include:

• Actions you must take to continue importing POAO from the EU into GB from 1 April 2021
• Guidance on how to meet the new requirements
• Useful links to essential information
• The opportunity to have your questions answered by Defra officials

The key objective is to ensure your trade and business readiness for the new EU to GB importing rules.

The webinar will be held on Zoom Meetings. Please use the link that will be emailed to you ahead of the webinar to join the online event.
