EU Inorganic Arsenic Maximum Level For Non-Alcoholic Rice-Based Drinks
Value
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Metal species | Inorganic arsenic, sum of As(III) and As(V) |
| Maximum level | 0.030 mg/kg |
| Normalized value | 30 ug/kg |
| Basis | Wet weight |
| Product scope | Non-alcoholic rice-based drinks |
| Regulatory source | Current EU contaminants framework: Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/915, Annex I, section 3.4.1.6; value introduced by Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/465 |
HMI use
This is an external regulatory value for plant-milks-rice-based. It is not an HMTc threshold. The comparison layer may place it next to field findings from damato2026-inorganic-arsenic-rice-based-beverages because the source reports the same product matrix, analyte species, and unit basis.
Legal Source Handling
Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/465 introduced the 0.030 mg/kg value for non-alcoholic rice-based drinks by amending Regulation (EC) No. 1881/2006. Regulation (EU) 2023/465 was later implicitly repealed when Regulation (EU) 2023/915 replaced and consolidated the EU contaminants framework. For current-facing comparison tables, cite Regulation (EU) 2023/915; retain 2023/465 as the historical amendment trail.
