When is a licence for export required?
A licence is required for export when tissues or cells intended for human application are exported to any establishment in a country outside the EEA or to an unlicensed or non-accredited tissue establishment, or other establishment or organisation responsible for Human Application within the EEA. (Licensed or accredited tissue establishments are those who are licensed or accredited under the laws adopted in that EEA state for the purpose of implementing the three EUTCD Directives.) The exporting establishment has to ensure that the exports comply with the Quality and Safety Regulations and Directions 001/2006 and 002/2007.
