Non-conforming consignment of bovine meat not presented for official control at the BCP
EU food safety notification · Information · follow-up
Is this a consumer recall?
No. RASFF is how food safety authorities in Europe exchange information about risks in food and feed. Information shared through RASFF can lead to products being recalled, but consumer recall notices with brand names are published nationally. An information notification for follow-up means a risk was found in a food placed on the market and the product is or may be on the market in another member country, but other countries don't need to act rapidly.
What did this RASFF notification report?
Non-conforming consignment of bovine meat not presented for official control at the BCP. Risk decision: not serious. Notification type: information notification for follow-up.
What should I do?
RASFF Window summaries do not name brands, batches or retailers, so a product in your kitchen cannot be matched to this notification alone. Check your national food safety authority's recall page or the retailer for brand-level consumer recalls, and follow their instructions if a notice names a product you have.
Can I check a specific product against this notification?
RASFF Window does not publish brand names, business operators, batch or lot numbers. Do not treat a similar product as affected or unaffected based on this summary; national recall notices carry the brand-level details.

What the labels mean
An information notification for follow-up means a risk was found in a food placed on the market and the product is or may be on the market in another member country, but other countries don't need to act rapidly.
Not serious: a risk evaluation shows a serious risk doesn't exist or is very unlikely, though fixing the problem is still desirable.
