This addendum concerns the notification of the Ministerial Decree No. 447/2024 (2 pages, in Arabic) that gives the producers and importers a six-month transitional period to abide by the Egyptian Standard ES 1819-1 for” Essential requirements for bouillons and consommés and methods of analysis and testing part 1: bouillon and consommés” (11 pages, Arabic)
It should be noted that Ministerial Decree No. 130 /2005 (11 pages in Arabic) which was formerly notified in G/TBT/N/EGY/1 dated 14 Dec 2005, mandated among others the earlier version of this Egyptian Standard.
Worth mentioning is that this standard is technically identical with Codex Standard No. 117/1981 “bouillons and consommés”, adopted in 1981. revised in 2001, 2015. amended in 2021.
Producers and importers are kept informed of any amendments in the Egyptian standard through the publication of administrative orders in the official gazette.
