Abstract: This technical report assesses the policy and economic impact of the provision of the specific import measures included in the New Plant Health Regulation [Regulation (EU) 2016/2031.To this end a survey of different EU stakeholders was carried out i.e. Certification CAs, NPPOs, operators, MS-level and EU-wide associations, and non-EU NPPOs. The survey was answered by 103 respondents from 60 different countries.Results show the stakeholders’ views on the specific import requirements for regulated non-quarantine pests and the requests for prior notification from non-EU countries when planning to export specific commodities to the EU, and the provisions for adopting measures in case of newly identified risks. In addition, it reports information on costs and benefits of the change in fees charged by NPPOs to operators and the number of inspections carried out. This report is one of four reports drafted for the preparation of the report to the European Parliament and to the Council according to the legislative obligation of the Commission laid down in Article 50 of the Plant Health Regulation (EC 2016/2031).
