Beef Export Verification (BEV) or Export Verification (EV)
USDA verified programs that establish the specific requirements for an export customer (specific country).Requirements can include:age, source, age and source, etc.
The EV programs began as BEV programs.
As more countries required verification of ALL meat products, beef was not the only species or classification requiring verification activities.
Thus the term “beef” was dropped and these programs are simply referred to as EV Programs.
There is no difference in the BEV and EV programs.
