The new information standard came into effect on 1 July 2026 under Australian Consumer Law (ACL). It applies to businesses that serve seafood for immediate consumption including restaurants, takeaways, hotels, pubs, clubs and food trucks.
These changes aim to give consumers clear information about the origin of the seafood they order.
