Dear users, please note that our food ingredient search currently only has data for food additives (excluding nutrition fortifiers, food flavoring & fragrance, processing aids, enzyme preparations) from Vietnam, Thailand and Indonesia. We are working diligently to gather data for the rest of the countries and their food raw materials, and appreciate your patience. Thank you for using our tool.

How do I use the ingredient search tool?

The ChemLinked Food Ingredient Search Tool allows you to look up approved food ingredients (currently food additives only) of multiple countries. To search for the substances in specific countries:

1) Select a country/region from the filter on the left.

2) Type in the INS No. or English name of the ingredient in the search box.

3) Click "Search" and results will appear below.

4) Click "Detail" next to any result for more info like approved food categories and maximum usage amounts.

To see approved usages across multiple countries, select "All" in the filter and search. This also helps you quickly see where an ingredient is permitted.

What if I don't get any search results?

If your search comes up empty, there are two likely reasons:

1) The name you entered doesn't exactly match what's in our database. Try searching again using the INS No., or a similar name.

2) The ingredient isn't currently included in our database. Please email food@chemlinked.com so we can look into it.

Where does the data come from?
All data is sourced from official government documents like laws, regulations, standards, and announcements in each country. The specific source is listed on each ingredient detail page.
How often is the data updated?
We continuously monitor regulatory changes in all target countries. Any formal changes that impact ingredient approvals will be reflected in the tool as soon as possible.
