Labelling

Business guidance

Nutrition labelling

It is mandatory for nutrition information to be declared on prepacked food. In Northern Ireland, the FSA is responsible for nutrition labelling. District Councils enforce these regulations in Northern Ireland.

Animal feed additives

Requirements for the authorisation and marketing of feed additives, and a list of feed additives under withdrawal.

Wine labelling

Guidance on the labelling requirements wine must meet to be sold in the UK.

Consumer guidance

Best before and use-by dates

It is important to understand best before and use-by dates on food labels to keep food safe and to help reduce food waste. Food may contain bacteria, and if stored for too long or at the wrong temperature can cause food poisoning.

Genetically modified foods

Information about genetically modified (GM) foods and how we assess the safety and labelling requirements of these products.
