Requirement documents for exporting eggs

The RMP Template for Eggs has been reviewed to update current legislative requirements and to transfer it into the new 'Know, Do, Show and Reference' format based on a plain English approach. The revised format clearly sets out what the operators need to know, what they need to do, records they need to show to their verifier and a reference section on the relevant regulatory requirements. The template reflects the new Animal Products Notice: Specifications for Products Intended for Human Consumption that came into force on the 2 December 2019. The RMP Template for Harvesting, Candling or Packing Eggs comes into effect on 3 February 2020 and operators are expected to implement the new template from this date. Your verifier will check compliance of your transition to the new revised RMP Template for Harvesting, Candling or Packing Eggs on the next scheduled verification visit.

If you produce eggs for sale, you can use this COP Technical annex to develop your risk management programme (RMP).
