EU updates regulations on imported food control measures
On June 13, 2022, the EU officially announced the issuance of Regulation (EU) 2022/913 on May 30, 2022, on adjusting regulations on food control measures exported through the EU and it's applied from July 3, 2022.
According to this regulation, the EU has revised the quality requirements and inspection frequency for food originating from Vietnam. As follows:
- The product group of noodles, vermicelli, and noodle soup (without seasoning package) are removed from the list of requirements for additional Health Certificate and testing frequency for Ethylene Oxide.
- The EU spiced instant noodles group continues to maintain the requirement for additional food safety certificates and the inspection frequency is 20%. Thus, We need to carefully check Ethylene Oxide for seasoning packages, especially dried vegetables.
- For dragon fruit, the EU continues to maintain the requirement for a certificate of food safety and a 20% inspection frequency for the pesticide group, especially paying attention to the active ingredient group Dithiocarbamate.
- The group of coriander, parsley, mint, basil, okra, chili still maintained the frequency of inspection at 50%
