Intra-Community trade in pure-bred breeding sheep and goats
The European Union (EU) harmonises the rules applicable to the trade in pure-bred breeding sheep and goats on its territory.
ACT
Council Directive 89/361/EEC of 30 May 1989 concerning pure-bred breeding sheep and goats [See amending act(s)].
SUMMARY
The Directive lays down common rules governing the trade in pure-bred breeding sheep and goats on European territory.
Sheep and goats
This Directive applies to:
Member State obligations
Member States may not prohibit, restrict or impede on zootechnical grounds:
Member States compile and update a list of authorised breeders’ organisations which are responsible for creating and maintaining the flock books before communicating it to the other Member States and the public.
Common rules at European level
The Commission is assisted by the Standing Committee on Zootechnics in determining:
Zootechnical certificate
At the time of their marketing, pure-bred breeding sheep and goats, as well as their sperm, ova and embryos may be accompanied by a zootechnical certificate if the Member State requires it.
Imports from third countries
The rules applicable to imports of pure-bred breeding sheep and goats and their sperm, ova and embryos must be at the least equivalent to those which govern trade between the EU Member States.
