| Acceptable Signatures/Color of Ink Used on the Export Certificates
|

Most export certificates require the signature of an FSIS veterinarian. However,
many countries accept the signature of an FSIS inspection official. For example,
while Canada requires the signature of an FSIS veterinarian, Mexico accepts the
signature of an FSIS inspection official.
Country requirements only reflect information where the signature of an FSIS
veterinarian is required. It is important to check the country requirements prior to
signing export documents to verify if an export certificate must be signed by an
FSIS veterinarian. If the country requirements are silent on this point, then an
FSIS inspection official may sign the document. Additionally, all export
certificates should be signed in an ink color other than black.
