Short Description

Latvia is a member state of European Union (EU). Member states of European Union have common (uniform) plant health legislation, including phytosanitary import requirements. This means that phytosanitary import requirements are the same for all EU member states. Member states does not have their own specific import requirements. Inside EU Latvia has protected zone for fireblight (Erwinia amylovora) therefore requirements for import and movement of E.amylovora host plants are stricter than those in parts of EU where there is not such protected zone. This is also stated in common EU plant health legislation. Please see a link below to EU plant health import requirements
