In order to facilitate the flow of goods, the phytosanitary and sanitary-veterinary procedures required on export will be modified. The phytosanitary control will be carried out outside customs posts and the need of border checks will be thus excluded. The changes will be soon presented to the Government for approval. The announcement was made by the director general of the National Food Safety Agency Gheorghe Gaberi during Prime Minister Pavel Filip’s visit to the Costesti-Stanca customs post, IPN reports.
According to the Government’s press service, Gheorghe Gaberi said the absence of a sanitary-veterinary and phytosanitary control post does not enable entrepreneurs to export products to Romania. The Premier requested the authorities to consider the current necessities and take the necessary measures to facilitate exports.
Pavel Filip also raised the issue of payment of vignette and the measures taken by the authorities to modernize the infrastructure of customs posts so as to avoid the formation of jams and ensure high-quality services for the people.
