Gibraltar: allergens
What your kitchen must tell customers about allergens.
Checked
“Law” is a binding rule. “Official guidance” is not law, but inspectors expect it. “Chef Hygiene default” is a value the app checks against where no rule gives a number.
- LawThe 14 EU allergens must be declared for food that is not prepacked (retained Regulation 1169/2011, art. 9 and 44).
- Chef Hygiene defaultThe research did not confirm whether Gibraltar needs this in writing. Chef Hygiene checks for a written list per dish and an “ask staff” sign. This is the app’s default.
