India: allergens

“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.

• LawA restaurant with a Central licence or 10 or more outlets shows calories, allergens (cereals with gluten, crustaceans, milk, egg, fish, peanuts and tree nuts, soy, sulphites at 10 mg per kg or more) and the veg / non-veg logo on its menu (FSS (Labelling and Display) Regulations 2020, reg 9, with FSSAI's Guidance Note of 23 February 2022).
• Official guidanceFor other restaurants FSSAI says it is preferable to name the common allergens on the menu and to tell customers when cross-contact cannot be avoided.
