Abstract In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the applicant Nissan Chemical Europe S.A.S. submitted a request to the competent national authority in Finland to modify the existing maximum residue level (MRL) for quizalofop in caraway to accommodate the intended NEU use of quizalop‐P‐ethyl for this commodity. The data submitted in support of the request were found to be sufficient to derive an MRL proposal for caraway. Adequate analytical methods for enforcement are available to control the residues of quizalofop, resulting from the use of quizalofop‐P‐ethyl, on the commodity under consideration at the validated limit of quantification (LOQ) of 0.01 mg/kg. Based on the risk assessment results, EFSA concluded that the short‐term and long‐term intake of residues resulting from the use of quizalofop‐P‐ethyl according to the reported agricultural practice is unlikely to present a risk to consumer health.
