GMO Labelling Threshold Check (Reg. EC 1829/2003 and 1830/2003)

What this check reads: European Union. No other market is covered.
Reads EU GMO Regulations (EC) No 1829/2003 and 1830/2003. Non-EU GMO thresholds (such as US NBFDS 5% or Japan 5%) are distinct and not evaluated under EU compliance rules.
