Czech inspectors have found horse meat in meatballs made in Sweden for IKEA Group, the world's biggest furniture retailer.
The Czech State Veterinary Institute reported its findings to the EU's Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed.
A spokesperson for IKEA has said that the batch in question was withdrawn two weeks ago.
The meatballs were sold in Ireland, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, France, UK, Portugal, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Greece and Cyprus.
Ikea has said it has taken the product off the shelves everywhere.
Meanwhile, Europe's growing horse meat scandal is expected to be raised at a meeting of EU agriculture ministers in Brussels today.
Minister for Agriculture Simon Coveney will chair the full Agriculture Council meeting that was originally intended to address reform of the Common Agricultural Policy as part of Ireland's presidency of the EU.
The Health and Consumer Policy Commissioner Tonio Borg will also take part in discussions on the labelling and traceability of beef products.
At least a dozen countries are involved in the horse meat affair, which implicates some of the biggest meat processors and food producers.
