To import organic food or feed into Ireland from outside the EU you must be a certified organic importer in Ireland. All imports of organic food or feed that arrive into Ireland from outside EU are subject to specific requirements such as organic certification, TRACES registration, product inspections and possible laboratory analysis.
To import organic food or feed you must be certified as an organic importer annually by an organic control body (OCB) registered in Ireland. You must also be registered as an organic importer with the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine. Once certified your organic control body will notify the Department accordingly.
To begin the process of certification please contact one of the organic control bodies.
