For Codex Alimentarius producers

Electronic phytosanitary certificates are a relatively new global development gaining a lot of interest and used by constantly increasing number of countries throughout the world. Their global use is supported by the ePhyto Solution system developed under the auspices of the Secretariat of the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC). The system has become fully operational in 2019.

In Europe and Central Asia, the European Union and Uzbekistan have joined the ePhyto system, some other countries have started their preparations to join, while many countries in the region are not on their way to using the system yet.

FAO Regional Office for Europe and Central Asia, the Secretariat of the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC), the Global Alliance for Trade Facilitation (GATF) and the ePhyto Industry Advisory Group (IAG) are cordially inviting you to attend a virtual event where we would like to provide some information relating to the implementation of the IPPC ePhyto Solution for the use of electronic phytosanitary certificates in international trade.

The webinar will take place online (through Zoom) on 24 June 2021, from 9.30 to 13.00 hrs Budapest/Rome time (CEST). It will start with several presentations, which will be followed by questions and answers.
