About this page

This page announces the revision of guidelines by Japan's Nuclear Disaster Countermeasures Headquarters regarding inspection plans and shipment restrictions for radioactive substances in food, released on March 20, 2015. The revision was based on inspection results accumulated since April 2014. Main amendments include reviewing inspection target items based on recent results exceeding safety standards or half thereof, and allowing beef inspection frequency to be reduced from once every three months to once yearly when proper livestock management is confirmed. The guidelines have been revised multiple times since their initial publication in April 2011.
