Overview

Health certificate for Laos: what and why

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 and agricultural imports in Asia are subject to health checks, and buyers may ask for legalised certificates to support import permits.

Authorities, banks and business partners in Laos usually ask for a legalised health certificate for food import clearance, veterinary or food safety approval or retail and distributor registration.

A health certificate issued in India is attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce, then by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), and finally legalised by the Embassy of Laos in New Delhi.
