How do I declare food additives that are used in my food under the statement of ingredients?

Updated by SFA

The food additives used in the food product may be declared either by their exact chemical names, INS/E number or permitted generic terms, such as "flavouring", "stabiliser" and "emulsifier".

The list of permitted generic terms for use in the declaration of ingredients are stipulated under the First Schedule of the Food Regulations.
