EC Regulation 1881/2006 repealed: impact on chemical contaminants limits
Regulation (EC) no.1881/2006 –defining the maximum levels of some contaminants in food products– was repealed as it had already undergone numerous and substantial changes; the Commission deemed it appropriate to replace it since more are needed. Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/915 entered into force on May 25th, 2023. Limit Detector team is already working to update the whole system (more than 2,000 data points are impacted) and all the new requirements will be available soon. In the meanwhile, we recommend to refer to Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/915.
