Notifications of the Phytosanitary Administration of the Republic of Slovenia

With the day of accession of the Republic of Slovenia to the European Union only the points of entry provided for with the agreement establishing the membership of the Republic of Slovenia in the European Union shall be deemed to be points of entry where phytosanitary inspections are carried out.

Consignments of plants, plant products and regulated articles, laid down in Annex V.B of Directive 2000/29/EC, which are liable to phytosanitary inspection, may be imported exclusively through the points of entry in the following cities:

• railway transport: Dobova;

• road transport: Gruškovje, Jelšane and Obrežje;

• sea transport: Koper;

• air transport: Airport Ljubljana - Brnik;

• postal consignments: Ljubljana.

Until the border crossing point Gruškovje as the EU point of entry for phytosanitary inspections has started to operate, the introduction of plants, plant products and regulated articles shall not be possible through this border crossing point. As planned, the border crossing point Gruškovje should start to operate in the near future.
