Official fee sourceMaterials and samples
Entry materials
- Category and project description
- Product and company information
- Images and innovation evidence; confirm 2027 quantities and word limits in the current rules
Samples depend on category or progression
Confirm the applicable stage, quantity, specification, receiving address and route before dispatch. Use the current official notice; an organiser’s office address is not automatically a sample warehouse.
- Quantity and specification
- The 2026 rules required at least two samples per product/flavour for each international judge; this is not asserted as a confirmed 2027 quantity.
- Delivery
- The 2026 page gives 21 September–11 October receipt and September address notices. These are not the 2027 window; use the new registration instructions.
- Costs and responsibilities
- The reviewed public rules do not fully assign freight, import tax, insurance and return costs. Confirm responsibilities with organiser and carrier before shipping; these are not assumed free or included in entry.
- Return and retention
- The reviewed rules do not fully explain return, retention or disposal. Confirm whether return is available, collection deadlines and costs before dispatch.
