The UK’s Food Standards Agency has issued a guide for businesses to comply with labelling regulations on fish.
Go deeper with GlobalData
Labels on fish sold at retail have to include the commercial name of the fish, and information on whether the fish was caught at sea, in inland waters or was farmed, and the area in which it was caught.
All of this information, together with the scientific name of the fish species, must also be available along the marketing chain when the product changes hands between businesses.
The rules do not apply to processed fish products (for example canned fish), ready-to-eat fish or fish products sold by caterers, the FSA said.
