5 Overview
The EU organic logo (Euro Leaf — green leaf made of stars on green background) certifies products produced according to EU organic farming regulations (EU 2018/848) [1]. Requirements parallel USDA: no synthetic pesticides, no GMO, no irradiation, minimum 95% organic ingredients. The Euro Leaf is LEGALLY PROTECTED — unauthorized use is a criminal offense in EU member states [1]. All products sold as 'organic' in the EU must display the Euro Leaf, the code of the control body (e.g., 'DE-ÖKO-001'), and the origin of agricultural raw materials ('EU Agriculture,' 'non-EU Agriculture,' or specific country) [1]. The EU maintains a mutual recognition agreement with the US, Canada, Japan, Switzerland, and other countries — meaning USDA Organic products can be sold as organic in the EU and vice versa (with some exceptions) [1].
