Council Directive 90/675/EEC of 10 December 1990 laying down the principles governing the organization of veterinary checks on products entering the Community from third countries · European Union

The official veterinarian must: (a) carry out a physical check on each consignment, on the basis of a representative sample of the consignment in order to ensure that the products are still in a fit state to be used for the purpose specified in the accompanying certificate or document; (b) perform the laboratory tests which have to be carried out on-the-spot; (c) take official samples to be examined for residues or pathogens and have them analysed as soon as possible. The official veterinarian may be assisted in certain of these tasks by qualified staff with special training, working under his direction.
