What the RASFF labels mean

Each card shows a notification type and a risk decision. The type tells you where the product is; the risk decision tells you how serious the authorities judged the finding.

Notification types

  • Alert notification: a food or feed with a serious health risk is on the market and rapid action is required. The country that found the problem has taken measures (for example, withdrawing the product), and other countries check whether it is on their market too.
  • Information notification: a risk was found in food or feed placed on the market, but other countries don’t need to act rapidly — because the product hasn’t reached their market, is no longer there, or the risk doesn’t call for it. For follow-up means the product is or may be on the market in another member country; for attention means it is only in the notifying country, was never placed on the market, or is no longer on the market.
  • Border rejection: a consignment was tested and rejected at the external border of the EU or EEA because a health risk was found. The notice goes to all border posts so the product can’t re-enter through another one.

Risk decisions

  • Serious: evidence shows the finding can seriously affect consumers’ health, acutely or chronically.
  • Potentially serious: a risk was identified, but when the notice was sent there wasn’t enough evidence or consensus to call it serious — and a serious risk can’t be ruled out.
  • Potential risk: no serious risk is suspected, but a risk can’t be ruled out and there’s not enough information to call it “not serious.”
  • Not serious: a risk evaluation shows a serious risk doesn’t exist or is very unlikely, though fixing the problem is still desirable.

About this list

What it includes. Recent food notifications from the public RASFF Window: hazard, product category, origin and notifying countries, notification type, risk decision and a link to the official notice. When a notice title is in two languages, the English part is shown first and the full original title underneath.

What it excludes. Brand and business names (RASFF Window doesn’t publish them), feed and non-food notifications, and national recall lists.

If you think you bought an affected product. Open the official notice, then check your national recall page and the retailer for brand-level instructions. For general steps — refunds, disposal and reporting — see what to do with a recalled product. An empty list never means a product is safe.

EU food recall and RASFF FAQ

What is RASFF?

RASFF is the European Commission's Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed. It lets food safety authorities in member countries quickly exchange information on health risks from food or feed. The public RASFF Window database shows summary information about notifications, without brands or business names.

What do alert, information and border rejection notifications mean?

An alert notification means a food or feed with a serious health risk is on the market and rapid action is required. An information notification means a risk was found in a product placed on the market, but other countries don't need to act rapidly. A border rejection means a consignment was tested and rejected at the EU or EEA external border because a health risk was found.

How do RASFF alerts differ from U.S. brand recalls?

RASFF notifications are shared between food safety authorities. Public RASFF Window summaries show the hazard, product category and countries, not the brand and retail product that a U.S. recall notice usually names.

Why are there no brand names on this list?

The European Commission says RASFF Window does not reveal commercial details such as brands and business operators. This page mirrors that public data. For brand-level recalls, check your national food safety authority or the retailer.

Is RASFF the same as a product recall in my country?

No. RASFF is how authorities exchange information. The European Commission says information shared through RASFF can lead to products being recalled, but consumer recall notices with brand names are published nationally.

Where should I check national food recalls in Europe?

Use your national food safety authority's recall page. Pages we checked on September 25, 2026: UK Food Standards Agency food and allergy alerts, Ireland FSAI food alerts, Germany lebensmittelwarnung.de, Netherlands NVWA safety warnings, France Rappel Conso, Spain AESAN food alerts, Poland GIS warnings and Austria AGES product warnings. The RASFF Consumers' Portal lists food recalls and public health warnings linked to RASFF notifications. For non-food products, use Safety Gate; this site covers EU food notifications only.

Does an empty list mean EU food is safe?

No. An empty or unavailable list never means a product is safe. Records can lag, this page shows a recent food-only subset, and many consumer recalls are published only on national sites.
