Following the WOAH report dated 1 September 2026, a Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) virus outbreak has occurred in Maine-et-Loire in France. In compliance with the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH), Terrestrial Animal Health Code Chapter 10.4, it is deemed necessary for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to prevent the entry of the HPAI virus into the country. Therefore, the import of poultry meat, eggs and their products from Maine-et-Loire in France to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is temporarily suspended (with the exception of processed poultry meat and egg products exposed to either heat or other treatments that ensure deactivation of the HPAI virus, as long as it conforms with the approved health requirements, and standards, with a health certificate issued by the official bodies in France prove that the product is free from the virus).
