The new Law on Food Safety (“Law“) came into force on 8 June 2022 by virtue of Royal Kram No. NS/RKM/0622/006. Consisting of 11 Chapters and 43 Articles, the Law sets out the legal framework and mechanism to regulate safety, quality, sanitation relating to food production and food businesses. The term “food businesses” refers to any business activities, regardless of size, except for the sale of street food, that involve the production, manufacture, preparation, treatment, packaging, transportation and storage of food, as well as the provision of service or sales related to food, whether for profit or not.
