 Regulation (EU) 2016/2031 of the European Parliament and of the Council on protective measures against pests of plants establishes phytosanitary import requirements [[https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A02016R2031-20250105|EURlex]]. Algae are "plants" for phytosanitary purposes, and some categories of imported fresh or minimally processed algae may require phytosanitary certificates. Producers importing live algae cultures, fresh macroalgae, or seed stock from third countries should check applicable phytosanitary requirements.
+=== Labelling requirements ===
+Algae, as aquacultural products, must be labelled in accordance with the aquacultural labelling rules. This means that Origin and Production Method Labelling for Aquaculture Products is mandatory according to Regulation No 1379/2013. This requirement is not tested at the import, but may be tested &enforced at any time when product is on the market. See [[algae:food:labelling]] for details.
