The EU is modelled as one market because the rules are bloc-level. Two facts dominate sourcing: under Reg. (EU) 2019/1793 Indian cumin is at a 30% pesticide check rate (raised January 2025) and Indian black pepper is at 50% for Salmonella; and Reg. (EU) 2023/915 sets the contaminant ceilings (aflatoxin B1 5 µg/kg, ochratoxin A 15 µg/kg, ETO 0.1 mg/kg). Rotterdam and Hamburg are the entry gateways.

Frequently asked
Will my Indian cumin pass EU border control?
It faces a 30% documentary-and-physical check rate for pesticide residues under Reg. (EU) 2019/1793 (raised January 2025). Passing reliably needs an accredited, recent residue panel and ideally pyrrolizidine-alkaloid screening.
