To sell in every market you target

One recipe has to satisfy the strictest rule in force anywhere you sell. These are the numbers it must actually meet — not the most generous country’s.

✕ benzoic acid
≤ 150mg per kg
Set by European Union — Germany — the other markets allow 150 (European Union — Germany), 200 (European Union — Germany), 850000 (European Union — Germany), 990000 (European Union — Germany).
Your product has 300 mg per kg.
No rule for this in Indonesia (BPOM), so that market is not part of this number.
✓ sodium benzoate
≤ 400mg per kg
Set by Indonesia — BPOM — the other markets allow 400 (Indonesia — BPOM), 400 (Indonesia — BPOM), 600 (Indonesia — BPOM), 600 (Indonesia — BPOM), 600 (Indonesia — BPOM), 600 (Indonesia — BPOM), 600 (Indonesia — BPOM), 900 (Indonesia — BPOM), 1000 (Indonesia — BPOM), 1000 (Indonesia — BPOM).
Your product has 300 mg per kg.
No rule for this in Germany (European Union), so that market is not part of this number.

5 rule(s) could not be compared as numbers — a labelling requirement or a unit we do not convert — so they are not in the ceilings above. They are still listed under each market.

What if you changed the recipe?

Try a different amount and see the verdict before you commit to it. Nothing here is saved — your product is not changed by asking.

Plain English is fine. Every answer quotes the exact rule it came from — and if no rule covers your question, it says so instead of guessing.
