June 30, 2024,
The Polish Inspection for Agriculture and Food Quality (IJHARS) has banned the import of dozens of tons of agri-food products from Ukraine in June. This information was shared by the agency on their Facebook page.
Key Bans:
• June 27, Rzeszów: 25 decisions were made to ban the sale of 25 batches of organic dairy products (milk, yogurt, kefir, cream, cheese) with a total weight of 4.36 tons. Reason: improper labeling, unauthorized information about being GMO-free, and a lack of labeling in Polish.
• June 19, Lublin: a ban on the import of a batch of yellow millet weighing 22.43 tons due to the presence of live harmful organisms.
• June 11, Lublin: a ban on the import of 684 kg of cookies due to insufficient sugar content.
• June 4: a ban on the import of 20 tons of frozen raspberries due to the presence of mold and excessive organic impurities.
• June 14, Bydgoszcz: a ban on the import of 20 tons of skimmed milk powder due to improper labeling (lack of importer information and usage conditions).
• June 10: a ban on the import of more than 25,000 packages of fruit juices and nectars due to numerous violations, including incorrect expiration dates and a lack of information about processing conditions.These measures underscore the strict Polish standards for food quality and safety and the necessity for compliance with all regulations for successful export to Poland.
