Check food and product recalls
How do I check whether a product has been recalled?
Search the federal recalls and safety-alerts service for the product you are checking. Open the actual notice and follow its instructions for the affected item. Canada Guide does not keep a live recall list or determine whether a particular product is safe.
Where to begin
- Search the official recall service using the product or brand name.
- Open the relevant notice and compare its affected-product details with your item.
- Follow the notice’s instructions; use the incident-reporting route if you need to report a concern.
Before you open the official service
- Product and brand name
- Label or model details kept privately
- The current official recall notice
Keep your actual documents and account details off this website. Use the official service’s current checklist before applying.
What to check for your situation
A missing search result is not proof of safety. For an urgent health concern, contact an appropriate health service.
