Informationen
The legal regulations on the handling of animal by-products concern the obligation to dispose of dead animals properly and the treatment or disposal of other animal by-products (parts and residues from animals that are not suitable or intended for human consumption), in particular to prevent animal diseases or to distinguish them from food intended for human consumption. These substances should be recycled and safely disposed of in such a way that neither human and animal health nor the environment are endangered.
In principle, all users of animal by-products and derived products are obliged to record them. At the request of the operator, the businesses or activities must be approved or registered. This document only describes the approval of businesses.
The approval procedure begins with the submission of the documents to the locally competent district administrative authority (district office or city) or the Food Safety and Veterinary Control Authority (KBLV), which carries out a preliminary inspection. If the application for approval has not been sent directly to the responsible approval authority (e.g. government), it will be forwarded to them.
After the application has been submitted and the preliminary review has been completed, an on-site inspection is carried out to check whether the relevant requirements have been met in each individual case.
The competent authority may consult veterinary experts when assessing the approval requirements of a business. The involvement of other, non-veterinary experts is possible.
The administrative procedure is concluded by issuing an approval notice.
Upon approval, the establishment receives an individual, published approval number for ABP (animal by-products) establishments, which also identifies it in the commercial documents and mandatory records in commercial transactions.

- Operating report for ABP companies (see "Forms")
