Classification and product features

CN code 190110 covers food preparations for infants put up for retail sale, based on flour, groats, starch or malt extract. These products include milk-based and milk-free cereal porridges, rice gruels, cereal preparations with fruits and other foods intended for children from 4 months to 3 years. Classification requires confirming that the product is put up for retail sale and intended for infants. Products in bulk packaging for further processing are classified under different codes.

Food safety and regulatory requirements

Infant preparations are subject to Regulation (EU) 2016/127 on infant formula and Regulation (EU) No 609/2013 on food intended for infants and young children. Requirements cover composition, pesticide residues (Regulation EC 396/2005), heavy metals (Regulation EC 1881/2006), mycotoxins and microbiological contamination. Labelling must comply with Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 with mandatory allergen declaration, nutritional values and preparation instructions. Health claims are subject to Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006.

Import and customs procedures

Importing infant preparations requires TRACES NT notification, health certificates from the exporting country, documentation confirming EU compliance and certificates of analysis. Border controls include documentary checks and may include physical inspection with sampling. Products must meet pesticide and contaminant limits. Packaging must be labelled in the destination country's language. Major exporters include the Netherlands, Germany, New Zealand and Australia.
