Montenegro food safety and customs inspections
Overview
Montenegro has conducted extensive oversight of food products through customs and veterinary inspections. During 2025 and 2026, the Customs Administration performed 272 inspections of meat shipments at border crossings, focusing on documentation, regulatory compliance, and risk analysis. While some irregularities involving expired products were recorded, specific seizure volumes were not disclosed.
Following these efforts, the Administration for Food Safety, Veterinary, and Phytosanitary Affairs reported that inspections during the tourist season resulted in nearly 800,000 euros in fines. These penalties were largely due to poor hygiene and the sale of expired food. Authorities also identified and destroyed meat products suspected of coming from unregistered facilities, using traceability principles to track goods from retailers back to producers.
