Rules, procedures and models relating to veterinary health certificates are laid down by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry in accordance with paragraph 7 of Article 31 of Law No. 5996 (G/SPS/N/TUR/9).

The following veterinary health certificate models have been prepared partly in compliance with Commission Regulation (EU) No. 142/2011 of 25 February 2011 and Regulation (EU) 2020/2235 of 30 December 2020:

-         "Veterinary Health Certificate for Exportation of Untreated Wool and Hair to the Republic of Türkiye";

-         "Veterinary Health Certificate for Exportation of Treated Hides and Skins of Ungulates to the Republic of Türkiye";

-         "Veterinary Health Certificate for Exportation of Treated Raw Materials for the Production of Gelatine and Collagen Intended for Human Consumption to the Republic of Türkiye".

With this amendment, the certificates used in trade before have been updated. A separate certificate has been prepared for treated raw materials for the production of gelatine and collagen intended for human consumption. The amendments do not bring any additional requirement to the current health conditions.

Raw materials allowed for the production of gelatine and collagen intended for human consumption must be derived from hides and skins of domestic and farmed ruminant animals and the fish skins and bones derived from plants that produce fishery products for human consumption which are authorized for export.
