Yes, they do. And yes, allergens are listed. Just not ALL allergens - only the most common. Nut related ones are always listed - for example if a product doesn`t contain nuts but is made in the same factory as nut products they will list it. Dairy is also often listed. I can`t recall what others are listed at the moment, but you`ll usually find the listing on more prepared foods rather than things you will find at the grocery store.
I believe the requirement here is for them to be listed if it is not clear from the ingredient list.
