In several regions egg coding is required or strongly expected by food-safety law, and many supermarket and export standards mandate identification on eggs. Requirements vary by country, but the trend is toward mandatory traceability.
Even where not strictly required, coding helps producers meet retailer audits, speed recalls, and prove compliance with food-contact and labeling rules.
Check the specific rules for your target market (e.g., EU packing-date and best-before rules, US state or retailer requirements) and code accordingly.
