The European Commission announced the achievement of a political agreement between the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union regarding the update of rules governing the organic sector. The agreement, concluded on October 20, 2026, provides for amendments to the norms of production, labeling, and certification of organic products. Furthermore, the new arrangements affect the rules for trade in organic goods with countries outside the European Union. This means a revision of the conditions for importing and exporting products manufactured according to organic standards, which may impact EU trading partners beyond the union. The European Commission emphasized that it welcomes the compromise reached, viewing it as an important step toward improving the regulatory framework for organic agriculture. The updated rules are expected to help strengthen consumer confidence in organic products, establish clearer certification standards, and simplify procedures for producers within the single market. Details of the final text of the agreement and the timeline for its entry into force will be clarified in subsequent stages of the legislative process, including formal approval of the document by the European Parliament and the EU Council.
