Summary in the original language of the document

This IT tool, free for our members, puts together relevant requirements for certain categories and is based on IFOAM Organics Europe's understanding of the new Regulation (EU) 2018/848 (referred to in this document as the Organic Regulation) and provides an overview of the changing legal situation as of 1 January 2022.
The following questions are answered in this guidance: 1) Which flavourings can organic food processors use from 1 January 2022?, and 2) What information do they need to ensure that they are legally compliant?
For example, if you are a poultry producer you will find all recitals, definitions, and requirements relevant to your activities in one chapter, and you will not need to open 10 different regulations. On top of that, when the EU Organic Regulation refers to other EU legislations, links to this information are also provided.

Summary translation

Dieses für unsere Mitglieder kostenlose IT-Tool fasst relevante Anforderungen für bestimmte Kategorien in einem Kapitel zusammen. Wenn Sie beispielsweise ein Geflügelproduzent sind, finden Sie alle für Ihre Tätigkeit relevanten Erwägungen, Definitionen und Anforderungen in einem Kapitel und müssen nicht zehn verschiedene Vorschriften öffnen. Darüber hinaus werden bei Verweisen der EU-Öko-Verordnung auf andere EU-Gesetzgebungen auch Links zu diesen bereitgestellt.

EPrint Type:	Practice tool
Teaser:	A guidance according to Regulation (EU) 2018/848.
What problem does the tool address?:	One of the new EU Organic Regulation (EU) 2018/848’s novelties is the restriction of the use of natural flavourings in organic products and the possibility to produce and certify organic flavourings. According to the previous Organic Regulation (EC) No 834/2007, all kinds of natural flavourings were allowed in organic processing. According to the new requirements applied from 1 January 2022, only certain natural flavouring can be used in organic food.
What solution does the tool offer?:	As the production of flavourings and their composition are quite complex topics, organic producers and control bodies still have many questions. This is why IFOAM Organics Europe provides guidance on the use of flavourings in organic food.
