🇬🇧 English

This corrigendum corrects a typographical error in Annex VII of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/404. In the table listing permitted third countries for the entry of animals into the EU, the entry for Mexico originally listed the zone code incorrectly as 'MK-0' for bumble bees. The correction changes this code to the proper 'MX-0'. The change appears on page 46 of the original regulation published in OJ L 114 on 31 March 2021. This amendment ensures the accurate identification of the Mexican territory approved for the import of bumble bees (BBEE) into the European Union.
