L 2022 nr 13 - Undeclared allergens in food - risk assessment guide

This risk assessment guide offers comprehensive information regarding how the Swedish Food Agency will assess the risk for allergic reactions in a population when the concentration of an undeclared allergen is identified. The allergens described in this report are milk, peanut, hazelnut, egg, cashew nut, walnut, soy, wheat, shrimp, fish and celery. 

Food business operators and control authorities may also use the guide to calculate the risk undeclared allergens might constitute. The guide is an important tool in aiding food business operators to make risk-based decisions regarding the handling of food allergens, although it does not offer advice as to whether to take action or on which risk management decision to choose.
