Kuwait Allergen Labeling Requirements for Restaurant Menus

## Kuwait Allergen Regulations Kuwait's food safety authority follows GCC Standardization Organization (GSO) guidelines for allergen labeling. Restaurants are increasingly expected to declare allergens on their menus. ### Required Allergen Declarations - Cereals containing gluten - Crustaceans and mollusks - Eggs and egg products - Fish - Peanuts and tree nuts - Soybeans - Milk and dairy products - Sesame seeds ### Best Practices - Display allergen icons next to menu items - Train staff to answer allergen inquiries - Maintain a detailed allergen matrix for the kitchen - Update allergen information when recipes change ## How Qaima Helps Qaima's menu builder includes standardized allergen tags that appear as visual icons on the customer-facing menu. Each item can have multiple allergens assigned, and diners can filter the menu by allergen.
