Processed meat products of bovine animals, sheep, pigs and poultry

Modifica la Resolución Exenta No. 3.212/2022 que establece exigencias sanitarias para la internación a Chile de productos cárnicos procesados de bovinos, ovinos, caprinos, porcinos y aves; y deroga la Resolución Exenta No. 2.602/2021 (Amendment to Exempt Resolution No. 3.212/2022 establishing sanitary requirements for the importation into Chile of processed meat products of bovine animals, sheep, goats, pigs and poultry; and repeal of Exempt Resolution No. 2.602/2021)

Chile hereby notifies the following proposed amendment to Agriculture and Livestock Service (SAG) Exempt Resolution No. 3.212/2022, previously notified in document G/SPS/N/CHL/702/Rev.1/Add.1:

Article 1 of SAG Exempt Resolution No. 3.212/2022 is replaced by:

"1. The following sanitary requirements for the importation into Chile of processed meat products, understood to mean processed products based on the meat of bovine animals, sheep, goats, pigs and poultry, or mixtures thereof, either alone or as part of a prepared dish, are hereby established:"

The purpose of this amendment is to harmonize SAG Exempt Resolution No. 3.212/2022 with World Organisation for Animal Health standards and to include the concept of "prepared dish" within the Resolution's scope.

The amendment also repeals SAG Exempt Resolution No. 2.602/2021 establishing sanitary requirements for the importation into Chile of prepared dishes containing ingredients of animal origin, since all sanitary measures established therein are contained in SAG Exempt Resolution No. 3.212/2022.
