THE EUR OPEAN COMMISSION, 
Having regar d to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, 
Having regar d to Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 September 2003 
on additives for use in animal nutr ition (1), and in particular Article 9(2) thereof, 
Whereas: 
(1)  Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provides for the author isation of additives for use in animal nutr ition and for the 
grounds and procedures for granting such author isation. Article 10 of that Regulation provides for the re- 
evaluation of additives author ised pursuant to Council Directive 70/524/EEC (2). 
(2) Benzyl alcohol, 4-isoprop ylbenzyl alcohol, benzaldehyde, veratraldehyde , 4-isoprop ylbenzaldehy de, salicylal ­
dehyde, p-to lualdehyde, 2-metho xybenzaldehyde, benzoic acid, gallic acid, benzyl acetate , benzyl butyrat e, benzyl 
formate , benzyl propionat e, benzyl hexanoate, benzyl isobutyrate, benzyl isovalerate, hexyl salicylate, benzyl 
pheny lacetate, meth yl benzoate, ethyl benzoate, isopentyl benzoate, pentyl salicylate and isobutyl benzoate 
(‘substances concer ned’) were author ised without a time limit in accordance with Directive 70/524/EEC as feed 
additives for all animal species. Those products were subsequently entered in the Regist er of feed additives as 
existing products, in accordance with Article 10(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. Veratraldehyde for poultr y 
and fish and gallic acid for fish will not be re-author ised as they were withdrawn by the applicant. 
(3)  In accordance with Article 10(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 in conjunction with Article 7 thereof, an 
application was submitted for the re-evaluation of benzyl alcohol, 4-isoprop ylbenzyl alcohol, benzaldeh yde, 
4-isoprop ylbenzaldehy de, salicylaldehyde, p-tolualdeh yde, 2-metho xybenzaldehyde, benzoic acid, benzyl acetat e, 
benzyl butyrate, benzyl formate , benzyl propionate, benzyl hexanoate, benzyl isobutyrate, benzyl isovalerate , 
hexyl salicylate , benzyl pheny lacetate, meth yl benzoate , ethyl benzoate , isopentyl benzoate, pentyl salicylate and 
isobutyl benzoate as feed additives for all animal a species and of veratraldeh yde and galli c acid as feed additives 
for certain animal species. The applicant request ed those additives be classif ied in the additive categor y ‘sensor y 
additives’. That application was accompan ied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of 
Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. 
(4)  The European Food Safety Author ity (‘the Author ity’) concluded in its opinion of 13 June 2012 (3) that, under 
the proposed conditions of use the substances concer ned do not have adverse effects on animal health, human 
health or the environment. The Author ity further concluded that the function of the substances concer ned in 
feed is similar to that on food. The Auth ority has already concluded that for food the substances concer ned are 
efficacious, as they increase the food smell or palatability . Theref ore, that conclusion can be extrapolat ed for feed. 
The Author ity cannot conclude on the safety of the concer ned substances in wate r for drinking. However , those 
substances can be used within compound feeds whic h are subsequently administe red via water . 17.1.2017 L 13/214 Official Jour nal of the European Union EN     
(1)OJ L 268, 18.10.2003, p. 29. 
(2)Council Directive 70/524/EEC of 23 November 1970 concer ning additives in feed ingstuffs (OJ L 270, 14.12.1970, p. 1). 
(3)EFSA Journal 2012;10(7):2785. (5)  Restr ictions and conditions should be provided for to allow better control. Since safety reasons do not require the 
setting of a maximum content, excep t for benzoic acid, and taking into account the re-evaluation performed by 
the Author ity, recommended contents should be indicate d on the label of the additive. Where such contents are 
excee ded, certain information should be indicated on the label of premixtures, compo und feeds and feed 
mate rials. 
(6)  The Author ity concluded that in the absence of data the substances concer ned should be considered as 
poten tially hazardous to the respirator y tract, skin and eyes, skin sensitisers and harmful if swallo wed. 
Consequently , appropr iate protective measures should be take n The Auth ority does not consider that there is 
a need for specific requirements of post-market monitoring. It also verified the repor t on the method of analysis 
of the feed additives in feed submitte d by the Reference Laborat ory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. 
(7)  The assessment of the substances concer ned shows that the conditions for author isation, as provided for in 
Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. According ly, the use of those substances should be 
author ised as specified in the Annex to this Regulation. 
(8) Since safety reasons do not require the immediate application of the modifi cations to the conditions of author is­
ation for the substances concer ned, it is appropr iate to allow a transitional period for interest ed parties to 
prepare themselves to meet the new requirements resulting from the author isation. 
(9)  The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committ ee on 
Plants, Animals, Food and Feed, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGUL ATION: 
Article 1 
Author isation 
The substances specifi ed in the Annex, belonging to the additive catego ry ‘sensor y additives ’ and to the functional group 
‘flavouri ng compounds’, are author ised as feed additives in animal nutr ition subject to the conditions laid down in that 
Annex.

2. Com pound feed and feed mater ials containing the substances as specif ied in the Annex which are produced and 
labelled before 6 Febr uary 2018 in accordance with the rules applicable before 6 Febr uary 2017 may continue to be

3. Com pound feed and feed mater ials containing the substances as specif ied in the Annex which are produced and 
labelled before 6 Febr uary 2019 in accordance with the rules applicable before 6 Febr uary 2017 may continue to be
