The European Union can temporarily set stricter requirements for foods to enter the EU market if it identifies potential risks to public health due to contaminants or pesticide residues in imported products. This guidance describes the many potential impacts of these temporary measures, and the actions that authorities, sectors, and operators in exporting countries should take to avoid increased official controls.

The impacts on low- and middle-income exporting countries of temporary increases of official controls under Regulation 2019/1793 are analysed in this qualitative study commissioned by AGRINFO. The report focuses on the examples of two affected value chains: green beans in Kenya, and dragon fruit in Vietnam.
