The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority (NVWA) is responsible for the inspection of goods that may impact public health, animal welfare, and environmental safety. Imports into the Netherlands — particularly from outside the EU — often require NVWA inspection before being cleared by customs.
These inspections are mandatory for products in specific risk categories and ensure full compliance with EU health and safety standards.
Midlog manages all types of NVWA inspections, including appointment scheduling, document checks, on-site coordination, and customs communication. We specialize in handling the three main NVWA categories:
Includes meat, dairy, fish, eggs, and other animal-based foodstuffs. These products are subject to strict import regulations to prevent the introduction of diseases and ensure food safety. We make sure that all health certificates and documents meet EU standards, and we handle the inspection process from start to finish.
Includes goods such as nuts, dried fruits, herbs, seeds, and spices. While considered lower risk, these items may still require NVWA checks depending on the country of origin or type of product. Midlog ensures that required documentation is in order and inspections are carried out without delay.
This includes items such as wood packaging materials, live plants, seeds, and cut flowers. These goods are inspected to prevent the spread of pests and diseases. Our team ensures all phytosanitary documents are pre-approved and inspections are smoothly coordinated.
