DEFRA have recently published updated guidance on importing composite products into GB.
By definition, composite products are food products for human consumption that contain both:
- processed products of animal origin (POAO)
- plant products
When you import any food that contains products of animal origin (POAO) such as meat, dairy or eggs, you must follow the guidance for importing animal products for human consumption.
This additional guidance applies to composite products from EU and non-EU countries and explains which composite products are exempt from import controls and what documents you need for your specific product.
The guidance can be accessed here
