Supermarkets bringing meat products from Great Britain to Northern Ireland face new bureaucracy from Monday.
The change is a consequence of Brexit and the Irish Sea border.
Retailers must now use Export Health Certificates (EHCs) to import chilled, processed meat - this covers products like fresh sausages and minced meat.
NI has remained part of the EU s single market for goods, which means that food products entering from the rest of the UK must undergo EU import procedures.
Central to this are EHCs - a certificate signed by a vet for every consignment of products of animal origin - meat, fish, dairy and eggs.
