(1) 旅遊人士的食物安全貼士

 

出門旅遊既令人心情興奮,又可增廣見聞,但亦有潛在風險。受污染的水或食物可能引致各種疾病,當中包括輕微和短期的徵狀(例如嘔吐、腹瀉等),以及長期和較嚴重的疾病(例如霍亂、甲型肝炎等)。旅遊人士在外地時務須保持警覺,並應採取以下預防措施,以免染上經食物或水傳播的疾病。

(2) 進口食物管制

 

基於公共衞生理由,當局對進口食物施加規定。某些高危進口食物,例如牛奶、奶類飲品、冰凍甜點、野味、肉類、家禽和蛋類等均受到《公眾衞生及市政條例》(香港法例第132章)的附屬法例所監管。進口野味或蛋類須事先獲得本署的批准,而進口肉類、家禽或蛋類則僅限於本署所認可的來源地。為放行進口的食物,進口商須提供出口國家/地方的發證實體所簽發的衞生證明書。

(1) Food Safety Tips for Travellers

 

With summer approaching, many of you may well be planning to travel abroad. Travelling can be exciting and rewarding, but can also carry potential risks. Contaminated water or food can cause a variety of diseases that range from mild and short-lived symptoms (e.g. vomiting, diarrhoea) to longer and more severe diseases (e.g. cholera, hepatitis A). Travellers should remain vigilant when abroad and take the following precautionary measures to prevent food- or water-borne illness.

(2) Imported Food Control

 

Import requirements for food are imposed for public health reasons. Certain high risk imported food like milk, milk beverages, frozen confections, game, meat, poultry and eggs are governed by subsidiary legislation of the Public Health and Municipal Services Ordinance (Cap. 132). Import of game or eggs requires the prior permission of the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department and import of meat, poultry or eggs is confined to sources recognised by the Department. For the release of imported food, importers are required to provide health certificates issued by the issuing entities of exporting countries/places.
