By way of derogation from the first subparagraph of paragraph 1, a UK plant passport need not be issued for the movement of a plant, plant product or other object from its place of entry into Great Britain to its initial destination in Great Britain if the plant, plant product or other object is accompanied by a copy, issued by the competent authority, of the original phytosanitary certificate that accompanied it on its arrival in Great Britain.
The competent authority shall retain the phytosanitary certificate for at least three years. That retainment may take the form of storage of the information contained in the phytosanitary certificate in a computerised database.
Where point (a) of Article 101(2) applies, that phytosanitary certificate shall be replaced by a certified copy thereof.
