[Australia] FSANZ advice on imported food (2020-09-24)
  • Registration Date 2020-09-28
  • Hit 261
We provide advice to the Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment on whether imported ?foods pose a potential medium or high risk to public health and safety. The Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment uses this advice to manage food safety risks at the border. The Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment inspects imported food to check it meets Australian public health and safety requirements and to ensure it complies with the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code. See the department’s website for information about the Imported Food Inspection Scheme and for answers to frequently asked questions about imported food. We take an evidence-based approach to determine food safety risks. Our imported food risk assessment document describes how we assess food safety risks from foods imported into Australia. Completed assessments are listed below. Biosecurity restrictions are in place for food such as meat, fruit, eggs, vegetables and dairy products from certain countries. For this reason, any foods listed below that do not meet biosecurity requirements will not be allowed into Australia. Please refer to the Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment website for more information about Australia’s biosecurity requirements. https://www.foodstandards.gov.au/consumer/importedfoods/Pages/FSANZ-advice-on-imported-food.aspx
