Frequently asked questions about restaurant allergens
What does the law say about allergens in restaurants?
EU Regulation 1169/2011 requires all restaurants, bars and catering establishments to inform about the 14 mandatory allergens in all their dishes. Non-compliance can result in fines between €3,000 and €600,000 depending on severity.
What are the 14 mandatory declaration allergens?
Gluten, crustaceans, eggs, fish, peanuts, soy, milk, tree nuts (almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts...), celery, mustard, sesame, sulphur dioxide and sulphites, lupin and molluscs.
Is a generic 'may contain traces' warning sufficient?
No. The law requires specific information per dish. A generic warning is not sufficient and can be penalized. You must be able to inform customers which allergens each specific dish contains.
Is this tool 100% legally reliable?
This tool is advisory and helpful. Legal responsibility always falls on the establishment. You must manually verify ingredients and possible cross-contaminations. For complete audited management, use AI Chef Pro Premium.
