This guidance is for businesses participating in the Certification Logistics Pilot, which is a module of the聽Accredited Trusted Trader Scheme.

The Certification Logistics Pilot simplifies the certification process for packaged animal products that move from a consolidation hub in the聽EU聽to Great Britain.

Participants can import eligible products using an export health certificate (EHC) from the point of origin of the goods (such as a manufacturing site). They do not need to get the goods re-certified at an EU consolidation hub.

The following businesses are participating in the pilot:

• DFDS Logistics Limited
• ECS European Containers
• Lidl UK Trading Ltd
• Nagel Group Ltd
• Stef Langdons Ltd

If participating businesses do not follow these rules they may be unable to stay in the pilot.

Eligible goods

This pilot is only for medium-risk products of animal origin for human consumption and medium-risk animal by-products. They must be packaged and certified in the EU.

The pilot excludes high risk聽POAO听补苍诲听ABP. Check the animal product risk categories.

Document requirements

For eligible goods you must:

• use an EHC from the point of origin of the goods (rather than the point of dispatch)
• add the trusted trader declaration and your trusted trader reference number to your import notification on IPAFFS

The point of origin is the final manufacturing or processing site. The EHC聽must be accompanied by additional information specific to the pilot.

Trusted trader declaration

The trusted trader declaration is provided by Defra directly to participants. It must contain:

• unit-level identifiers to identify the goods that are included on the聽EHC聽and are travelling on a particular load to Great Britain
• relevant consignee details
• a declaration that you have ensured the safety and security of the goods during their end to end journey

Health certificates

The health certificate requirements for goods imported under the pilot are similar to existing requirements. They must聽include some additional information from the certifying officer.

Consolidation hub requirements

Consolidation hub used in the pilot must be:

• listed as approved establishments to聽
• registered or approved by the competent authority of the country it is in

The UK-based part of your business must take responsibility for the聽EU-based consolidation hubs involved in the goods鈥� journey to Great Britain.

Supply chain assurance and traceability requirements

You must write and implement standard operating procedures. The supply chain must allow for products to be easily identified and traced.

Your systems and procedures must allow for:

• products to be traced from the place they were originally processed or manufactured to their intended destination
• consignments and products to be verified at arrival
• products to be rejected, withdrawn, or recalled during intake, storage and dispatch

You must keep records that show you conduct internal audits to check you comply with the requirements of the pilot.

Food safety management requirements

You must:

• 蹿辞濒濒辞飞听
• maintain legal temperature controls throughout the process from intake to dispatch for all products and rooms - this includes marshalling areas, as well as chillers and freezers
• have processes to distinguish between products which are eligible for聽CLP聽and products which are not,聽during storage

Products which are intended for sale in Great Britain must be hygienically stored in dedicated areas.

The design and layout of the facilities must allow for good food hygiene practices and protect against contamination.

You must keep:

• records which show your procedures and staff are effective and competent
• evidence that staff are trained and supervised

Guidance for certifying officers

Certifying officer should complete a health certificate聽as normal, except for information about the:

• consignee or importer (usually box I.5)
• place of destination (usually box I.12)
• means of transport (usually box I.15)
• border control posts (BCPs) (usually box I.16)

Consignee and place of destination

For the consignee box you should provide one of the following:

• the EU consolidation hub from where the goods will be dispatched directly to Great Britain
• the consolidation hub (if destination is not known at the time of certification)
• the actual destination of first unloading when the goods arrive to Great Britain

For place of destination, include the details of the representative of the CLP participant in the UK.

The actual consignees and place of destination must then be provided by the聽CLP聽participant in a separate document, the trusted trader declaration, and in the聽IPAFFS聽notification for the goods before they move from the consolidation hub to Great Britain.

Standard certification is an optional field.

Means of transport

In the means of transport box, write one of the following:

• the means of transport in which the goods departed the establishment of manufacture, where the EHC was signed
• 鈥榞谤辞耻辫补驳别鈥�

You do not need to include the final means of transport to Great Britain.

Border control posts (BCPs)

You should include the border control post (BCP) (usually box I.16) where the goods will enter Great Britain, if known.

If this is not known at the time of certification, provide the聽BCP聽that the聽importer thinks is most likely. If you are using聽, select country and then United Kingdom.

The actual聽BCP聽must be provided in the聽IPAFFS聽notification, before the goods move to Great Britain from the consolidation hub.

Complete the rest of the聽EHC聽as normal

You should complete the rest of the聽EHC聽as normal, as if the goods were moving directly from the point of certification to Great Britain.

Complete the country of origin (usually box I.7) in line with existing guidance. Enter the country where the goods were produced, manufactured or packaged.

Complete the place of loading (usually box I.13) to identify the place where the goods are loaded into their means of transportation to the consolidation hub. This is the place where the goods are being certified.

Do not list the consolidation hub which will be the place of final dispatch to Great Britain for goods moved under聽CLP. This information will be provided by the聽CLP聽participant in the common health entry document (CHED) before the goods move to Great Britain from the consolidation hub.

Complete the date and time of departure (usually box I.14) and means of transport (usually box I.15) in line with existing guidance. Provide the means of transport and date of departure of the goods as they depart the place where they are being certified.

Requirement to add unit-level identifiers to health certificates

You must add unit-level identifiers to health certificates聽for consignments in the pilot.

For example, a list of unique identifiers recording all the pallets, boxes or containers of goods certified under that聽EHC.

The聽importer must use these identifiers later to identify which units from the health聽certificate聽are moving in any particular load to Great Britain.

The exact nature and format of the identifiers is up to the聽importer and their suppliers. They must usually be provided at the level that goods will be divided at the consolidation hub. For example, pallet identifiers if the goods will be divided at pallet level, or box identifiers if the goods are to be divided at box level.

Consignments can only be divided at the consolidation hub at the level of the unit-level identifiers used. For example, if pallet level identifiers are used, goods must be kept in their original pallets. They cannot be divided into boxes.

Adding unit-level identifiers to the certificate

You should incorporate unit-level identifiers into the聽EHC聽under 鈥榗ontainer no.鈥� (box I.19) with the prefix 鈥�CLP ULI鈥� followed by the ULI number.

If the identifiers cannot all be inserted, a schedule to the聽EHC聽should be created with the full list.

For electronic聽EHCs, where a verifiable PDF聽EHC聽will accompany the consignment, the schedule should be uploaded in accompanying documents (usually box I.17).

Verifiable PDF certificates for imports of products of animal origin from the聽EU听补苍诲听EFTA聽countries will be accepted from聽TRACES. Check the list of聽countries Great Britain will accept validated PDF GB health certificates from.

For both electronic and physical聽EHCs, you should:

• prepare the schedule according to existing guidance for schedules to聽EHCs
• include the聽EHC聽reference number on each page along with stamp and signatures as appropriate
