U.S. Food Exporter News from FDA Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition  News and updates for U.S. exporters of FDA-regulated food products FDA Launches Update to Export Listing Module to Facilitate U.S Exports of Eggs and Egg Products to the European Union November 22, 2021 To export eggs and egg products to the European Union (EU), facilities must be on the EU's list of approved establishments. The EU will include U.S. establishments on their list that have been certified to comply with applicable food safety requirements and will only accept products processed in approved establishments based on submissions from the U.S. competent authority. FDA is the U.S. competent authority for shell eggs and food products containing eggs. USDA's Food Safety Inspection Service (FSIS) is the U.S. competent authority for egg breaking and pasteurizing operations. For more information on how to export FSIS-regulated products to the EU, visit FSIS's Export Library. To facilitate U.S. exports of FDA-regulated eggs and egg products, FDA has updated the Export Listing Module (ELM) to allow U.S. establishments to request FDA certification for inclusion on the EU's list of approved establishments. FDA-regulated establishments may apply for FDA's first update to this list now through December 10, 2021. FDA expects to send its first update to this list to the EU in mid-December 2021. Going forward, FDA will send updates to this list on a quarterly basis as described on the Food Export Lists webpage. For additional information on exporting FDA-regulated eggs and egg products to the EU, visit Egg and Egg Product Exports Lists. For more details including step-by-step instructions on how to apply in the ELM, visit Online Applications for Export Lists. Please contact the Export Certification Team at CFSANExportCertification@fda.hhs.gov for any additional questions about the ELM.
