The EU (European Union) has changed its regulations for “novel foods” in an effort to make it easier to introduce new foods into the European market.
The new rules, Regulation (EU) 2015/2283, went into effect Jan. 1, 2018. And they repeal and replace Regulation (EC) No. 258/97 and (EC) 1852/2001, which were in force until Dec. 31, 2017.
