If you are looking to export food or other products of animal origin from the UK, then you may well need an EHC. As experienced OVs, we can guide you through the process and sign and stamp the EHC for you. The EHCs are issued by the Centre for International Trade in Carlisle – a division of APHA, which itself, is an executive agency of DEFRA.
There are over 1,500 different EHCs available, covering over 130 individual countries. All are unique, specific to a certain country and product. They certify matters such as species and country of origin, disease free status, safe for consumption, processing information and freedom from contamination. Some products may require more than one certificate if they include several ingredients.
The certificates available are broadly split into a number of categories:-
Whether you are a new or an experienced exporter, we are here for you. We offer a tailor made approach, so if you need guiding through the whole process from start to finish, or just need an OV to turn up at your site to check and sign the EHC, or anything in between, we will do our best to help.
