Hong Kong's food labelling laws are being put into effect at trade level.
Hong Kong's food labelling laws are being put into effect at trade level.
Exporters of pre-packaged food to Hong Kong are urged to make themselves aware of new regulations covering nutrition labelling.  

The changes relate to information about nutritional information and claims included on food labels.  

While they do not take effect until mid-2010, the new regulations are already being adopted at the trade level so that non-compliant packaging may not be accepted for sale.  

More information about Hong Kong’s food laws can be found at www.fehd.gov.hk
