304 notifications on cereals and bakery products from India since 1 January 2020. That is 14% of all EU notifications on products from India and 15% of all notifications on cereals and bakery products from any origin; India ranks 2 of 95 origins for this category. 31 in the 365 days to 8 November 2026, against 54 in the 365 days before, down 43%.

Most reported: tricyclazole (93), thiamethoxam (67) and chlorpyrifos (42). 57% were border rejections (28% for cereals and bakery products from all origins) and 37% had a serious risk decision. The products named most often were rice (146), basmati rice (74) and bread (12).

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.
