Food Labelling Requirements

You must label your food and drink if you:

  • Manufacture — make and sell packaged food
  • Import — bring packaged food in for sale, or
  • Pack — food for retail sale.

Make sure you create your food label to meet the rules in the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code.

This article includes MPI Guidance to Food Labelling Requirements and will assist you in getting your food label right.
