automatic identification. The Center enables also electronic document management in commodity distribution

networks and electronic commerce processes.

Center for Identification Systems is an independent expert organization with an accredited bar code

verification laboratory, as well as an EPC / RFID laboratory.

The National Technical Committee for Standardization TC BY 24 Identification operates within the Center for

Identification Systems. The Center is a member of the Interstate Technical Committee МТК-517.

A training scientific and practical RFID-laboratory (established by joint efforts of BSU and ZTE) operates within

the Center’s facilities.

Over 25 normative legal acts, relevant state standards and technical codes and more than 40 national, sectoral

and corporate projects and information systems based on modern technologies of automatic identification and

electronic business were developed and put into operation in 2007-2017.

initiated the development of the concept of the Single Trade (Digital) Information Space in the Customs

Union,

developed a national component of the system for marking of fur products and control of legality of turnover

of fur products in the EEU;

developed a reference model of the Single Window for Foreign Trade Activity of the EEU countries

(completed in May 2017);

is an authorized body that issues certificates for operators of the electronic document management dealing

with electronic waybills (EDI providers).

State automated information system for identification, registration and tracing of

animals and products of animal origin (AITS).

AITS is used in agricultural industry to identify owners of animals regardless of the

form of ownership, livestock facilities and animals.

The system ensures traceability of life cycle and health status of animals in the

Republic of Belarus. It is based on national and international standards for the

identification and registration of animals and takes into account the

recommendations of the FAO and the GS1 system of standards.

In addition, it allows to create effective information technologies for traceability of

food products at the national, sectoral and corporate levels.

In 2013, AESA (Belgium) experts in information technologies and systems for

animal identification and registration evaluated the functionality of the AITS

system.

representatives of the training mission of the FAO and the EU – 2013

5. Since 2014, the system is implemented in all regions; the government of the

Republic of Belarus adopted a decision (No. 06 / 217-514 as of May 27, 2014) on the

development of the functionality of the AITS system so that it could be used for tracing

of other animal species, as well as for ensuring on-line traceability of products of animal

origin.

Stages of development and implementation of AITS.BY

Extract from AESA experts’ opinion (Agriconsulting Europe SA,

Brussels) - representative of FAO and EU in Belarus

From October 28 to November 1, 2013, the functionality of the animal identification and

traceability system (IS AITS), developed in the Republic of Belarus, was evaluated.

CONCLUSION:

1. IS AITS complies with the requirements requested by the European regulations for identification and traceability systems for animals, including cattle.

2. IS AITS has a flexible identification and adjustment system, which allows to quickly adapt it for identification of other species of animals, and to promptly set it up in accordance with the legislation in case any changes are introduced to it. Considering this, the system can me recommended for use in other countries.

Integration

An important property of the AITS: any set of data daily

generated and accumulated in the system can be converted

(in the case of cross-border trade) into appropriate formats

and further provided (following regulations or upon request)

to other states’ information systems, including the Russian

Federation’s FGIS Mercury.

Similarly, when animals and products of animal origin,

which are subject to veterinary and sanitary control and

which must be traceable to comply with the legislation of the

Republic of Belarus, are shipped to Belarus from other

countries, AITS allows receiving, accumulating and

providing of relevant data on the quality, safety and

traceability of products imported to our country to the

authorized bodies of Belarus.
