In a decisive move to protect consumer health and ensure food safety, Iran has banned the cultivation and import of genetically modified (GMO) foods.

The new regulation also mandates clear labeling for food and beverage items containing GMO ingredients, aiming to provide greater transparency for consumers and enable informed choices about the products they purchase.

This comprehensive ban reflects Iran’s commitment to preserving natural agricultural practices and addressing potential health concerns associated with GMOs. By prohibiting the production and import of GMO products, Iran joins a growing number of countries prioritizing organic and non-GMO food sources.

The mandatory labeling policy further underscores the government’s dedication to consumer rights and food safety, ensuring that the public is fully aware of what is in their food.
