Following a review, the Plant Health Services in Great Britain have agreed to extend an easement that allows draft UK Plant Passports to be attached in EU Member States for plants for planting intended for final users to 31st January 2027.
The current easement was due to end on 30th June 2025; however, a decision has been made to extend the easement for another 19 months to 31st January 2027.
While the extension to the easement allows for labels with UK Plant Passport information to be attached in EU Member States, the UK Plant Passport will not be valid until a visual check has been made and recorded by the UK Professional Operator. It will be necessary for the Professional Operator to record that visual checks have been conducted and that the requirements of the UK Plant Passport scheme have been met.
