    Instructions for the use of a schedule when submitting an Export Health Certificate (EHC) or Background Certificate (BC) application.

    You should only use a schedule to include details of the product if there is insufficient space on the EHC/ BC pdf application form at Section I entitled ‘Identification of Products’. You should not use a schedule where all the information can be entered on the EHC/ BC pdf application.

    Please ensure the appropriate schedule is submitted for your consignment:

    • the Milk and Milk Products schedule to support dairy exports EHCs;
    • the Fish to China schedule to support fish exports to China (using 7649 EHC);
    • the generic template to support other commodity EHCs and BCs.

    When using the schedule please insert “see attached schedule” at the relevant part of the EHC/ BC application.

    Example: If you need to use a schedule to outline product details at the section entitled: I(a) Description of Products you should enter “see attached schedule” in that line and record the full product details in the schedule.

    You should upload this schedule along with your EHC/ BC application.

    The EHC/ BC unique reference number will be added by DAERA staff when processing your application.
