Following the publication in the Official Journal of the European Union L 131 of 16 April 2021 of the following two regulations, it was necessary to update these health certificates.

• “Commission implementing regulation (UE) 2021/617 of 14 April 2021 amending Implementing Regulations (EU) 2020/2235 and (EU) 2020/2236 as regards model animal health certificates and animal health/official certificates for the entry into the Union of certain aquatic animals and products of animal origin“.
