Export pig meat from Northern Ireland to China: certificate 7006NI

Use these forms and guidance documents to export frozen raw pork from Northern Ireland to the People's Republic of China.

These documents are for exports from Northern Ireland to China. There’s a different process for exporting pig meat from Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales) to China.

What you need to do

Section A: You no longer need to download and complete the EHC listed in this section as this will be completed online as part of your application process.

You will need to download and complete the supplementary forms (Internal Movement Certificate 7006IMC only if required) in this section as you will need to upload these during the application process.

Section B: Download all guidance notes. These documents have information for the exporter and certifying officer.

Check the relevant commodity section of the DAERA website for any other mandatory forms.
