Food Labelling Directive (EU)

The Food Labelling Directive (EU) is a set of rules that ensure food products sold within the European Union provide clear, accurate, and consistent information to consumers. It requires labels to include details like ingredients, nutritional content, allergens, the country of origin, and expiration date. The goal is to help consumers make informed choices and ensure food safety and transparency. This legislation applies to most pre-packaged foods, promoting trust and protecting public health across EU member states.
