What the notification says

Regulation (EU) No. 1169/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 October 2011 on the provision of food information to consumers was adopted in Israel as part of the 10th Amendment to the Public Health Protection (Food), 5776 – 2015, and appears in Item 5 of Annex 2A. This regulation was applied in Israel from January 1, 2025 on a voluntary basis and will apply to all traders as of January 1, 2028. Section 62(2) of the 10th Amendment establishes a temporary provision under which certain adopted labeling provisions will not apply to imported processed meat and fish products until July 31, 2026. This temporary provision is intended to allow examination and adjustment of the unique labeling arrangements applicable to these products and to ensure a gradual, regulated transition to the implementation of the new provisions. In this proposed Temporary Order, the entry into force is extended until November 1, 2026.
