(8) The duration of the recognition in accordance with Article 33(3) of Regulation (EC) No 834/2007 of the control bodies listed in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 1235/2008 ends on 30 June 2018.

In order to lift the temporary suspension, the Commission invited ‘Bolicert Ltd’ to provide a valid accreditation certificate from IOAS (the accreditation organisation of ‘Bolicert Ltd’) and to take appropriate and timely remedial action in accordance with the requirements of Regulation (EC) No 834/2007. IOAS has informed the Commission that it has decided to lift the suspension because it had received satisfactory information on corrective actions by ‘Bolicert Ltd’. Based on that information, the Commission has concluded that it is justified to include ‘Bolicert Ltd’ in Annex IV again under the same conditions as before the suspension.
Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1473 of 14 August 2017 amending Regulation (EC) No 1235/2008 laying down detailed rules for implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No 834/2007 as regards the arrangements for imports of organic products from third countries (OJ L 210, 15.8.2017, p. 4).

Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/872 of 22 May 2017 amending Regulation (EC) No 1235/2008 laying down detailed rules for implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No 834/2007 as regards the arrangements for imports of organic products from third countries (OJ L 134, 23.5.2017, p. 6).

(26) The Commission has received and examined a request from ‘Servicio de Certificación CAAE S.L.U.’ to be included in the list in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 1235/2008. Based on the information received, the Commission has concluded that it is justified to recognise ‘Servicio de Certificación CAAE S.L.U.’ for product categories A and D in respect of Bolivia, Ecuador, Mexico, Morocco, Peru and Turkey.
(27) The Commission has received and examined a request from ‘Tse-Xin Organic Certification Corporation’ to be included in the list in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 1235/2008. Based on the information received, the Commission has concluded that it is justified to recognise ‘Tse-Xin Organic Certification Corporation’ for product categories A and D in respect of Taiwan.
(28) The DAkkS, an accreditation organisation in the field of organic agriculture, has informed the Commission that it has decided to suspend its accreditation of ‘Egyptian Center of Organic Agriculture (ECOA)’. Pursuant to Article 12(1)(c) of Regulation (EC) No 1235/2008, the Commission may at any time suspend the entry of a control body from the list in Annex IV to that Regulation, either in the light of the information received or where the control body has not supplied information required. ‘Egyptian Center of Organic Agriculture (ECOA)’ was invited by the Commission to provide a valid accreditation certificate and to take appropriate and timely remedial action in accordance with the requirements of Regulation (EC) No 834/2007, but did not reply satisfactorily within the deadline set. The entry of ‘Egyptian Center of Organic Agriculture (ECOA)’ should therefore be suspended in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 1235/2008 until satisfactory information is provided.
(29) Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 1235/2008 as amended by Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/872 lists ‘IMOcert Latinoamérica Ltda’ as a recognised control body for product categories A and B in respect of Argentina and for product category A in respect of Costa Rica. Since Argentina and Costa Rica are listed in Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 1235/2008 for product categories A and B and for product category A, respectively, ‘IMOcert Latinoamérica Ltda’ could not have been recognised for those countries for those product categories in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 1235/2008 in accordance with Article 10(2)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 1235/2008. The recognition for those product categories in respect of those countries should therefore be deleted. ‘IMOcert Latinoamérica Ltda’ had been invited by the Commission not to certify products falling within those product categories on the basis of the erroneous reference to those product categories in respect of Argentina and Costa Rica.
This designation is without prejudice to positions on status, and is in line with UNSCR 1244/1999 and the ICJ Opinion on the Kosovo declaration of independence.’
(30) Annex V to Regulation (EC) No 1235/2008 as amended by Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1842 contains the new model of the certificate of inspection for import of organic products under the electronic certification system, to which reference is made in Article 13(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1235/2008. In this Annex, the note corresponding to box 12 of the certificate erroneously refers to box 24 instead of box 21. This error should be corrected.
Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1842 of 14 October 2016 amending Regulation (EC) No 1235/2008 as regards the electronic certificate of inspection for imported organic products and certain other elements, and Regulation (EC) No 889/2008 as regards the requirements for preserved or processed organic products and the transmission of information (OJ L 282, 19.10.2016, p. 19).
(31) Annexes III, IV and V to Regulation (EC) No 1235/2008 should therefore be amended and corrected accordingly.
(32) The deletion of ‘IMOcert Latinoamérica Ltda’ should apply retroactively from the date of entry into force of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/872 and the deletion of ‘IMOswiss AG’ should apply from 1 January 2018.
(33) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on organic production,
