Abstract
EAC partner states have been collaborating with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) to improve and harmonize aquatic animal management in EAC since 1999. The EAC has suffered cases of transboundary animal diseases. Better control and harmonized regulation of movement of live animals across borders was identified as an important area to improve biosecurity at the regional and national levels in EAC. This Standard Operating Procedure is intended to provide control of trade sensitive diseases while trading in live animals within the East African Community (EAC) territory.
