Regulation 1107/2009 divides Eu into three zones for PPP evaluation and authorisation:

Applications are evaluated on a zonal basis, but for some uses the EU is considered a single zone and a single Member State can evaluate a PPP on behalf of the entire EU; these uses are greenhouse uses, post-harvest treatments, treatment of empty storage rooms or containers and seed treatments

And designated zRMS assess applications on behalf of other countries in their zone (generally, openfield uses) and sometimes on behalf of all zones (protected and indoor uses).
