title: [Importation and transit of products of animal origin at the border inspection post of Hamburg as an example].
abstract: The EU conditions for the approval of border inspection posts are explained, just as the modalities of checking (documentary check, identity check, physical examination) and the information and communication systems (ANIMO, Rapid Alerts, EU Internet). The differences in procedure between import, transit and some specials are outlined. An overview is given of the volume, kinds of products, origins and the import figures relating to the transit figures. The results of the checks are commented.
