Poland has imposed a ban on the importation of live cattle, sheep, and food products of ruminant origin from countries where BSE has been identified. Imported meat should be documented with a valid certificate stating that is does not originate from cattle whose parents were imported from Holland, United Kingdom, Ireland and Switzerland. Currently no licences are being issued for importation of live cattle, bovine semen or bovine embryos. The Polish Ministry of Agriculture has appeal to born meal producers to observe the Polish Norm PN-92R-64809.
