Jessy Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I may have an opportunity to sell fried durian in the UK. The problem is that I don't know anything about the rules, regulations and lawas etc regarding importing foodstuff to UK. Also, forgive me for being naive, but does imported food have to be tested to say it's safe to eat? I would be grateful for any sensible advice.

Jessy Posted November 29, 2006 Author Share Posted November 29, 2006 Walg, thanks for your reply. It's a pity that no one else seems to know, but there you are. I will have to look into it a bit more myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAWP Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Call your local Ministry of Agriculture (or the equivalent for processed food) and ask them for any import-regulations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
