How to check if a product has been recalled in Ireland

Worried something in your home has been recalled? Here's how to check any product against Ireland's official recall notices in a minute.

1. Search by product, brand or batch code

The fastest check is a search on recalls.ie. Type the product name, brand, shop or a batch code and we'll show any matching recall. Because we bring every Irish source into one place, a single search covers food, toys, electronics, appliances and vehicles at once.

2. Confirm the affected batch, date or model

Most recalls only affect specific batches, best-before dates, or model and serial numbers— not every unit ever sold. Find the code on your product's packaging, base or a sewn-in label and compare it against the affected codes in the notice. If your code isn't listed, your item generally isn't part of the recall.

3. Browse by category or retailer

Not sure of the exact name? Browse by food, toys, electronics or any other category, or jump straight to a shop's recalls — for example Tesco or Dunnes Stores, or see all retailers.

4. If your product is affected

Stop using it, and follow the remedy in the notice — usually a refund, repair or replacement. For food, supermarkets refund recalled items at customer service, typically without a receipt. Read what to do if you own a recalled product and your refund rights for the full detail.

Where Irish recalls come from

Recalls in Ireland are published by the FSAI (food and allergens), the CCPC (consumer products) and the RSA (vehicles). Recalls.ie checks these sources continuously and gathers every notice here — always follow the instructions in the official recall notice, which we link on every page.

Where can I find a list of recalled products in Ireland?
Our all recalls page lists every Irish recall we track, newest first, and you can narrow it by category (food, toys, electronics, vehicles and more) or by retailer. Each entry links back to the official notice.
How do I check if a food product has been recalled?

How do I know which batch is affected?
The recall notice lists the exact affected batch codes, best-before dates, or model and serial numbers. Find the matching code on your product's packaging, base or label and compare it — if it isn't listed, your item generally isn't part of the recall, but follow the notice if in doubt.
