Imported foods are regulated under the Food Law and involve distributors, and this research was conducted to dive deep into expired imported food regulations and the responsibilities of distributors as business actors. The research method uses normative juridical methods with secondary data obtained through a literature study on legal materials which include primary, secondary and tertiary data with descriptive-analytical as specifications. The results showed that expired imported food was banned and regulated in the Food Law. Meanwhile, the distributor is responsible for expired imported food.
