Belgien: allergener

”Lag” är en bindande regel. ”Officiell vägledning” är inte lag, men inspektörer förväntar sig det. ”Chef Hygiene standard” är ett värde som appen kontrollerar mot där ingen regel anger ett nummer.

• LagThe 14 EU allergens must be declared: gluten cereals, crustaceans, eggs, fish, peanuts, soya, milk, tree nuts, celery, mustard, sesame, sulphites, lupin and molluscs (Regulation 1169/2011).
• LagFor food that is not prepacked, written information is the rule (royal decree of 17 July 2014, art. 3). Show it on paper or a screen where the food is sold, easy to read before buying.
• LagSpoken information is allowed only if it is given at once and free of charge. A written procedure must exist at the point of sale, and staff must be trained on it.
• LagYou must always show a clear written notice that says where to find or ask for allergen information and that recipes can change.
