Labelling food products
Introduction
Guidance
Food labels help consumers make informed, safe choices about the food they buy or eat. They also protect your business by clearly showing what the product contains and how to store or use it.
Labels must be clear, easy to read and understand. They cannot mislead customers. You must show the name, ingredients, date marks, business details and allergens. Information should be easily visible and indelible.
This guide explains the legal requirements for food labels. This includes the rules on food allergen and nutritional labelling.
Under the Windsor Framework, all food produced in Northern Ireland continues to apply EU food and feed law.
