Summary/Abstract: Through this study, we try to present relevant European and national regulations in relation to official control and food hygiene matters. Regarding food safety, these two aspects are particularly important since not everything we eat is safe. In terms of official control, European regulations adopted have detailed the procedure for making these controls, laying down general rules for the controls, requirements for personnel who perform the official control, obligations for economic operators which are subject of these controls, establishing guidelines for performing official controls, and other aspects which will be detailed throughout the paper. With regard to food hygiene, on April 29, 2004, the European Parliament and Council adopted the "food hygiene package law". These new regulations represent a change in approach to food hygiene policy, the major objective of this package is to simplify existing legislation on food hygiene, making it more coherent by separating the different areas (public health, animal health and official controls) and be achieved by focusing on the food business operator, putting less emphasis on detailed requirements.
