How does it work?
The first step to entering is to register and pay for your entries online via the MyGuild portal once entry is open. You can register your company details in advance, but please try to avoid setting up a duplicate company account. If someone in your business has already got a company account, then they can add you as a user.
Eligibility
Please note the host country determines the import legislation for entries and it is likely that we will not be permitted to accept entries from all countries. The permitted list of countries has now been published and in 2023 we are not permitted to accept entries of cheeses from a select number of countries, including (but not limited to) Bangladesh, Barbados, Ecuador, Georgia, Peru, Russia, Taiwan and Venezuela. There are restrictions on more countries to determine whether raw cheeses can be entered. Please check the delivery instructions link below for full details. If you entered the awards and are subsequently were unable to submit cheese due to the licensing restrictions, we will refund your entry fees straight away. This will be communicated and arranged in plenty of time before delivery is required, so you do not waste product or incur courier fees. Please note if you are permitted to send cheese, it is your responsibility to make sure it gets to the location specified in your delivery instructions and refunds will not be given in this case if cheese does not arrive.

Consolidation points are organised across the world to receive World Cheese Awards entries from cheesemakers and from there the cheeses are transported to the judging venue:

Delivery dates and addresses will be issued to confirmed entrants in early Autumn via your MyGuild account. Normally you will be asked to make delivery to the consolidation point nearest to your business and will be provided with delivery labels, guidance on the quantity to send and the latest date by which the cheeses can be received.
Please do not send any cheeses until you have received your delivery instructions.
Important information for entries from outside of Norway
If you are planning to enter cheeses from a country outside of Norway, you will be required to provide documentation to ensure that your cheeses will be accepted for delivery in Norway. Please refer to the delivery instructions document above for full information and guidance on documents required.
If you have any questions about the documents please contact worldcheese@gff.co.uk.
