Can irradiated food be imported into the UK?
Certain foods that have been irradiated may be imported into the UK, as long as they comply with certain rules. The Food Irradiation (England) Regulations 2009 set out the requirements for producing, importing and selling irradiated food in the UK. The food must come from an approved facility and must have the correct documentation to accompany it. There is also parallel legislation in Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland.
