Protection of public health regulations (Food) (Implementation of Changes in the Annex to European Union Directives) (Addition of Vitamins and Minerals and Certain Other Substances to Food) 5785-2025

The amendment to the Protection of Public Health Regulations (Food) (Implementation of Changes in the Annex to European Union Directives) amends the adoption of Regulation (EC) 1925/2006, which deals with the addition of vitamins and minerals and certain other substances to Food. The amendment was published in Israel's Official Gazette, section of Government Notice no 12104 on 1 December 2025. It adopts Commission Regulation (EU) 2024/1821 of 25 June 2024, as regards iron milk caseinate added to foods and used in the manufacture of food supplements, and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/949 of 12 May 2023 authorising the placing on the market of iron milk caseinate as a novel food which authorises the placing on the market of iron milk caseinate as a novel food and will enter into force in Israel on 5 June 2028.

The European Regulation (EC) No 1925/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 December 2006 on the addition of vitamins and minerals and of certain other substances to foods was adopted in Israel as part of Amendment No. 10 to the Public Health Protection (Food) Law, 5776 - 2015 (notified in G/TBT/N/ISR/1332/Rev.1), and appears in item 7 of the Second Annex A to the Law with a few deviations as detailed in columns A and C, in addition to the exceptions as stated in Section 3A(a1) to (a5) of the Law. The adopted European edition was of the version valid on 22 June 2023. It is now proposed to apply the change to the adopted Regulation (EC) 1925/2006 in full, as implemented in the European Union by 10 September 2025. The main change introduced in this proposed Order is the addition of iron milk caseinate to foods, as published in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/949 of 12 May 2023 authorising the placing on the market of iron milk caseinate as a novel food. Furthermore, Israel's National Food Services published the Novel Food letter for comprehensive guidance.
