Description

The Department of Inspection of Products of Animal Origin (DIPOA), of the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock of Brazil, implemented, in its computerized system, a new security tool regarding the authenticity of Transit Documents,allowing the issuance of International Sanitary Certificates (CSI) for edible and non-edible products of animal origin, originating from establishments registered with the Federal Inspection Service - SIF, with the use of electronic signature.The new security tool implemented includes:a) Electronic signature: International Sanitary Certificates will be signed electronically, with two-factor verification by the system, recording the full name of the official server responsible for issuing them, their position and the number of their Functional Identification Card (CIF), in addition to the date and time the certificate was approved in the system.b) QR Code for checking the Sanitary Certificate issued: allows verification and security of the information validated by the Service.With the implementation of this new tool, the sanitary certificate is issued in PDF format, with greater agility, security and sustainability, eliminating the need for printing, manual signature and application of stamps. In this notification, the Department of Inspection of Products of Animal Origin (DIPOA), of the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock of Brazil, announces that the International Sanitary Certificates of standard model (used for exports to countries with which Brazil does not have a bilaterally agreed certificate model) will now be issued with electronic signature, maintaining manual signature and stamps only in cases where the system is unavailable (contingency measure).Finally, we inform the countries importing products of animal origin and products for animal feed that a period of 180 days will be given for entry into force, starting from the date of publication in the WTO.
