12 Aug 2021 --- US dairy companies will now have until January 15, 2022, to comply with the EU’s new health certificate requirements for dairy products entering or passing through the EU. The extension wards off threats to shut down non-compliant US dairy exports of infant and adult nutrition products destined for or passing through the EU. The decision comes after months of advocacy by the International Dairy Foods Association (IDFA), which requested an extension until December 2023 to comply with the “onerous” regulation designed to mitigate animal disease.
