Supplement ingredient imports: EU border-control evidence from 1 October 2026
Before dispatch, connect the exact material, origin and classification with the applicable evidence. The form below identifies gaps; it does not clear goods at the border.
The amended list does not give every supplement the same obligation.
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2026/551 replaces the annex to Regulation 2021/632. Article 2 sets application from 1 October 2026. Read each row with its description and qualification: an ‘ex’ entry does not cover everything classified under that code. EUR-Lex ↗
Four rows to review—not the complete list
| CN | Material and scope qualification |
|---|---|
| ex 1301 | The annex limits this row to food-industry E904, including animal-origin shellac. |
| ex 2008 19 | Only goods containing products of animal origin are covered by this row. |
| ex 2106 90 55 | Only syrups containing products of animal origin are covered; not every maltodextrin material. |
| ex 2933 | This row is limited to isolated peptides of animal origin; not all nitrogen heterocyclic compounds. |
Absence from these four rows does not establish an exemption. Classification, goods scope and the competent control route need their own supporting basis.
What to gather before dispatch
- A specification version covering the exact material, animal origin and composite status.
- A candidate CN/TARIC code and its classification basis—not just an invoice code.
- Origin and destination, the confirmed BCP route or a specific exemption basis.
- Applicable certificate and CHED/TRACES requirements and references where relevant.
- An owner and supporting evidence for each step; leave unresolved questions unresolved.
A document number does not establish authenticity. Exemptions for certain composite products are a separate question; this preview does not grant them.
