Why the Czech Republic asks for a legalised health certificate
An export health certificate confirms that a consignment of food or animal products was inspected and is fit for human consumption. It is common for meat, seafood, dairy, eggs, honey and processed food. Health certificates for food and animal products are issued by the competent Indian authority for the product, such as export inspection or animal quarantine authorities.
Food imports into Europe follow strict rules, and some importers ask for apostilled certificates as part of their supplier file.
Companies dealing with the Czech Republic are most often asked for a legalised health certificate during food import clearance, as well as for veterinary or food safety approval and retail and distributor registration.
A health certificate issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. The Czech Republic accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.
