The Ministerial Decree No. 6/2025 gives the producers and importers a six-month transitional period to abide by the Egyptian standard ES 9012 which specifies the basic requirements and descriptive criteria for sweetened condensed milk for direct consumption or other manufacturing processes that comply with the definitions clause of this standard.
This standard cancels and supersedes ES 1830-2 “Concentrated milk, Part 2: Sweetened condensed and concentrated milk”.
Worth mentioning is that this standard is technically identical with Codex Standard CXS 282-1971 "Sweetened Condensed Milk", adopted in 1971, revised in 1999, amended in 2010, 2018, 2022, 2023.
