Draft Order of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine 'On Approval of Amendments to Certain Regulatory Acts of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine'
Ukraine notifies the adoption of the Order of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine No. 203 'On Approval of Amendments to Certain Regulatory Acts of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine' of 19 February 2026 (the amendments concern hygienic requirements for dietary supplements and the rules on the addition of vitamins, minerals and certain other substances to foods). The Order was registered in the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine on 30 March 2026. It was officially published and entered into force on 17 April 2026.
The draft Order has been revised taking into account the results of consultations with stakeholders and now incorporates editorial amendments and clarifications, including those related to terminology. The revision clarifies the approach to the lists of substances used in dietary supplements and their safety characteristics.

The above-mentioned List I has also been updated by clarifying the names of plants, plant parts and the relevant warnings and restrictions, based on authoritative scientific sources and European Union practice. In List IV 'Substances with a nutritional or physiological effect' of the same Annex, the substance 'proanthocyanidins' has been clarified as 'oligo-proanthocyanidins,' which is in line with the available scientific conclusions of EFSA and other reliable sources; no separate daily intake limit has been set for this substance. The terminology related to dosage and safety parameters has been aligned with Ukrainian legislation through the use of the terms 'acceptable daily intake' and 'maximum permissible levels'. The term 'daily intake' is used as a descriptive…
