ISO 22000 for egg export buyers

ISO 22000 is a food-safety management standard that helps buyers assess whether a supplier has structured controls around food-safety risks, documentation, corrective actions and traceability.

For fresh shell egg importers, ISO 22000 is usually reviewed together with product specifications, packaging requirements, veterinary or health certificates, Halal documentation where relevant and cold-chain handling.

What buyers should verify

• Certificate holder name and site scope
• Certificate number and expiry date
• Scope wording relevant to poultry, eggs or food handling
• Issuing certification body
• Whether the certificate matches the exporting entity
