Objective
In conjunction with the BRS document (CEFACT/ICG/005), the purpose of this document is to provide a
standard framework for the exchange of information for traded agricultural products between government
regulators involved in cross border trade, where export certification is required to facilitate the entry of
product into a country.
This document transforms the government to government (G2G) electronic certification business
requirements elaborated in the associated BRS document into a technical requirement specification
model for the XML based message structure and data components suitable for use by developers in the
building of eCert compatible systems. It does not aim to specify the component model, system design, or
presentation standards as these will vary with each unique developer requirement and are incidental to
the transmitted message and data processing functions.
This standard adopts an XML based solution and uses published UN/CEFACT core components where
possible. Required components that are not in the core component library are noted and submitted in this
document for consideration and integration into the UN/CEFACT Registry.
Class diagrams to be transformed into the target technology include the following:

eCert package model

eCert data model composite

Certificate header data model

Certificate approval data model
The business context for these is elaborated in the BRS document. They are also described further in
section 4.1 and detailed in section 4.2.

Target Technology Solution(s)
The eCert solution requires a UN/CEFACT XML standard schema.
The eCert solution will not be implemented as a UN/EDIFACT standard message.
eCert uses a message structure based on XML which is delivered from the Export Regulator to the Import
Regulator via secure internet protocols using conventional encryption technology. Standard
acknowledgement and certificate status change messages are also conveyed back to the sender on this
carrier.
There are several possible delivery technologies for the eCert message. These include, but are not
limited to:
Internet view:
Where the Import Regulator can view eCert information displayed in a web
browser. This may or may not provide capability for downloading the page as an
XML file.
This delivery mode requires no development capital from the Import Regulator
other than access to internet capable hardware and software.
SOAP:
Where the import regulator uses aninterface over the simple object access
protocol, SOAP, to retrieve eCert data in batch form from the Export Regulator’s
web service.
The import regulator can either display the SPS data directly in a user interface or
load it into its import clearance systems.
On receipt of retrieved data, the SOAP system should acknowledge receipt of each
certificate to the Export Regulator’s system.
SFTP:
File Transfer Protocol over the secure shell (SSH) protocol.
SMTP:
Where the Export Regulator transmits eCert data directly to the Import Regulator’s
import clearance systems using the simple mail transfer protocol, SMTP.
On receipt of data, the Import Regulator’s import clearance system should
acknowledge receipt of each certificate to the Export Regulator’s system.

Information Payload to be Implemented
4.1
Sanitary and Phytosanitary Certificates
The trade of agricultural commodities is highly regulated by government to protect human, animal and
plant health. The importing authority sets standards for product crossing their border and may require
certification issued by the recognised competent export authority to verify compliance to agreed
requirements.
The certification is subjected to international trade principles as set by heads of authority including the
Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations and its Codex Alimentarius Committee and
International Plant Protection Convention, and the World Trade Organization. Bilateral arrangements are
a key component of determining product and certification requirements and vary from country to country.
Certification arrangements are dependent on agreed market access and may change in response to
disease outbreak, environmental issues and consumer driven concerns.
Appendix 1 outlines as examples of sanitary certificates for animal based commodities.
In May 2001 the International Plant Protection Council, IPPC, a subcommittee of the Food and Agriculture
Organization of the United Nations, published the International Standard for Phytosanitary Measures,
publication No 12 (ISPM12). It stipulates the content and layout of phytosanitary certificates for export
and re-export world wide. Appendix 2 outlines the requirements for phytosanitary certification.
4.2
Conceptual Data Model
The following conceptual model is derived from the BRS document. However, during the UN/CEFACT
Harmonization process the model has been aligned with the core component library as well as all other
concurrent submissions. The conceptual model presented here is the varied, harmonized version to
provide the transformation link to the canonical model described in section 4.2.
This conceptual model describes the structure of the eCert components and how each entity is related in
a business context. A sanitary or phyto-sanitary certificate comprises four major components:




Consignment information in the certificate header section
Transport information covering the main carriage for this consignment
Information about the commodities in the certificate product section
Certification information in the certificate approval section
Sanitary import regulations vary between countries. Templates are used to generate certificate
documents to commodity specific requirements of particular countries. This includes translations of
certifying declarations into languages of the in transit and import countries.
Upon entry into countries of transit or import, border control authorities sight SPS certificates and
acknowledge receipt to the issuing competent authority
Authorities may detain consignments during the inspection process, and may request a replacement of
the original certificate to correct information.
Ultimately, consignments are either cleared or returned after insepction. The corresponding certificates
are accepted or rejected respectively. Border control authorities can transmit responses including the
final clearance decision back to the originating agency in acknowledgement documents.
Responses from border control authorities back to the competent authority of the exporting country are
modelled by in the withdrawal-return-acknowledgement section.

Business Information Entity Reference
The following list of Basic Business Information Entities (BBIEs) represents the essential data elements
that must be included in inter-governmental eCert messages and describes their usage. However,
government organisations developing eCert software may include additional BBIEs if desired for onscreen presentation purposes. In some cases there may also be a desire to convey commercial data
associated with a consignment as a part of the XML message payload. This is generally not a
requirement for government-to-government certification and is therefore excluded from this specification.
The business information model presented is a result of the harmonization process at UN/CEFACT. Core
components have been re-used to the greatest possible extent. The introduction of new core
components, where required, was co-ordinated with other trade and business process groups for the
following domains;
TBG1 – Supply Chain
TBG2 – Digital Paper
TBG3 – Transport
TBG18 – Agriculture
The eCert Project Team has also liaised with the World Customs Organisation(WCO) prior to submitting
its model to UN/CEFACT. WCO is mapping its components to the eCert model, and is introducing new
components to its model, where necessary.
