Namibia restricts imports of cloven-hoofed animals from Germany

Namibia’s agriculture ministry has announced a 42% reduction in imports and exports of cloven-hoofed animals and their products from Germany due to a foot-and-mouth disease outbreak.

The Directorate of Veterinary Services has suspended imports of certain commodities, recalled previously issued permits and allowed certain commodities under a veterinary import permit, provided they meet recommendations as required by the World Organisation for Animal Health.

The imports of processed products, hides, skins, hairs and trophies from cloven-hoofed animals are also prohibited.
