Although most infant formulas are not specifically certified Kosher for Passover, the Orthodox Union (OU) confirms that they are halachically acceptable for infants and those who are ill, as they are considered essential nutrition. Many formulas may contain kitniyot or trace ingredients that would not normally be used on Passover, but these are permitted in this context. The key requirement is that the product should bear a regular kosher certification (such as an OU or similar), even if it does not have a special Passover designation. For infants, maintaining proper nutrition takes priority, and therefore standard formulas can be used when needed.

- Ideally purchased before Passover
What to avoid when buying Kosher for Passover
- Flavoured formulas unless no alternative is available
- Add-on or “toddler snack” style products mixed with formula
- Products without any kosher certification
