Amendment: EEA Agreement Annex I (veterinary & phytosanitary)

This procedure updates the rules governing animal and plant health requirements within the European Economic Area (EEA). It ensures that veterinary and phytosanitary standards are aligned between the EU and EEA-EFTA countries to maintain food safety and protect ecosystems from pests and diseases.

This affects traders, farmers, and veterinary authorities in the EU and EEA-EFTA states by streamlining the legal requirements for moving animals, plants, and pharmaceutical products across borders.
