## Abstract

The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) FSIS is amending 9 CFR parts 327 and 381 to bring the frequency with which foreign inspection systems are required to make supervisory visits to certified establishments into agreement with the frequency with which the Agency makes supervisory visits to domestic establishments. This final rule does not affect in-plant inspection requirements. FSIS is deleting the requirement that supervisory visits take place "not less frequent[ly] than one such visit per month." Instead, FSIS will require foreign inspection systems to make "periodic supervisory visits" to certified establishments to ensure that establishments meet FSIS requirements for certification to export meat and poultry to the United States.
