    Abstract:
    With the implementation of EU regulation 1169/2011 in December 2014, labelling of allergenic ingredients has been extended to non-prepacked foods. The member states of the European Union were authorised to lay down national rules for the labelling of allergenic ingredients in non-prepacked foods. In Germany, this was accomplished through the introduction of the Vorläufige Lebensmittelinformations-Ergänzungsverordnung (VorlLMIEV). Regulation 1169/2011 also changed the way allergenic ingredients are to be labelled on prepacked foods.This article provides an overview over the current regulations regarding the labelling of food allergens on prepacked and non-prepacked foods in the EU and Germany.
