Kosovo (under UNSCR 1244) Amendments as regards the assignment of Commodity Codes to import measures and Pesticides

Pesticides

Besides the prior registration of both importers of means of plant protection and the agricultural pesticides themselves with the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Rural Development (MAFRD), an approval for the actual shipment to be imported into Kosovo must be obtained from the Border Phytosanitary Inspectorate, which comes under the Food and Veterinary Agency. This information has been added to the chapter on Chemical Substances and Hazardous Goods in this overview.
