International Animal Health Code

The International Animal Health Code is a set of guidelines developed by the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) to ensure the safe movement of animals and animal products across borders. It establishes standards for disease prevention, control, and reporting, helping countries cooperate to prevent the spread of contagious diseases. By following these internationally recognized rules, countries can protect animal health, support trade, and safeguard public health, all while promoting transparency and trust in global animal and food supply chains.
