258 notifications since 1 January 2020 named Hungary as a country of origin, rank 26 of 163 origins. 51 in the 365 days to 8 November 2026, against 39 in the 365 days before, up 31%. 0% were border rejections, where the consignment was stopped at the EU's outer border, against 30% for all origins.
Hungary is an EU member state, so its products reach other member states without a border check; its notifications come from checks on the market, company checks and complaints rather than border rejections.
The finding reported most often was Salmonella (109 notifications, 42%), then foreign bodies (19). The product category with most notifications was poultry meat (97). 52% carried a serious risk decision, against 52% for all origins.
Counts start on 1 January 2020 and run to 8 November 2026, the day the list was last read. A notification that names two countries of origin counts for each. Findings come from our word list matched against the EU subject line, which is never shown; 96% of all notifications match it, the rest count as other finding. Each reference links to the official record on RASFF Window. How this works.
