Depending on the commodity and origin, imported plants and plant products may require a Phytosanitary Certificate (PC) and be subject to pre-notification and inspection requirements.

UK food businesses importing food must also comply with applicable food safety, traceability, labelling and pesticide-residue requirements. Imported fresh produce must comply with the maximum residue levels and other food-safety requirements applicable in Great Britain.

Depending on the commodity and shipment, documentation may include:

Commercial Invoice

Fumigation/Treatment Certificate, where applicable
Product specifications
Food-safety or laboratory documentation, where required
