In 2025, the SPS sector is not exempt from new legislation.
In the 2019 Regulation 2072, plants of part B such as cabbage, lettuce, barley or wheat will be randomly checked once arriving in France. CHED’s will have therefore be carried out in " one-shot ". This is a notable change since there was no question of control still a few weeks ago.
We therefore invite you to remain careful upon your arrival in France and about your status (orange line) during your unloading.
The measure is already in place and should run for the whole of the coming year.
