French law applies. Raw milk legal via farm gate, vending machines, and retail under the Arrêté du 13 juillet 2012. Local cattle farming present across the archipelago.
Guadeloupe is an overseas department and region of France comprising an archipelago in the eastern Caribbean Sea. As an integral part of France and the European Union, French law applies in full, including food safety regulations governing raw milk.
Raw milk is legal for sale via farm gate, vending machines, and retail shops under the Arrêté du 13 juillet 2012 relatif aux conditions de production et de mise sur le marché des laits crus. Guadeloupe has a local cattle farming sector, particularly on the larger islands of Basse-Terre and Grande-Terre, and dairy production is present. Access to raw milk follows the same prefectural authorization framework as metropolitan France.
