In the course of inspection of a cargo car, which was traveling from the Republic of Kazakhstan, 290 kg of beef intestinal raw materials were found, which, according to the accompanying documents, cannot be identified and ensure its traceability, because of the discrepancy between the information in the bill of lading and the information specified in the veterinary certificate

In addition, the veterinary accompanying document presented by the carrier was not available in the electronic database of the state veterinary information system “VetIS”.
