Inspections
As a supplier of plant material, you deal with Naktuinbouw in various ways. Naktuinbouw is directly responsible for plant passport inspections. In addition, a number of European directives apply to the marketing of propagating material. If propagating material meets higher system requirements, it qualifies for certificates. It is possible to have import and export inspections carried out on your propagating material via Naktuinbouw. When it comes to export certification the NVWA is responsible and Naktuinbouw carries out the inspections and testing.
For information on inspections we refer Dutch companies to the Dutch part of our website.
