(9) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/883 deleted Annex II to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/2325. As a consequence, references in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/2325 to that annex and to the subject matter covered by it should be deleted. 

(10) Since the expiry date of the recognition of a third country for the purpose of equivalence under Article 33(2) of Regulation (EC) No 834/2007 is set out in Regulation (EU) 2018/848, the application of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/2325 should be aligned with that expiry date. Consequently, references to that date should also be removed from Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/2325. 

(11) Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/2325 should therefore be amended accordingly. 

(12) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Organic Production Committee,
