Origin of Food Labels Australia

If you sell food in retail stores in Australia, new Country of Origin Labelling (CoOL) laws apply to your products from 1 July 2016.

Businesses will have time to adjust over a two-year transition period. This means food products packaged up until 1 July 2018 can be sold without the new labels.

If you supply food for retail sale in Australia, country of origin labelling laws will apply to your products under the Information Standard.

The Information Standard applies to:

• food for retail sale in Australia (e.g. food sold to the public in stores or markets, or from vending machines)
• packaged foods sold by wholesalers
• many unpackaged foods.

All foods, other than non-priority foods, must carry the new labels.

Non-priority foods are still required to have the country of origin statement, but the statement does not need to be placed within a clearly defined box.

Non-priority food are:

• seasonings
• confectionery
• biscuits and snack foods
• bottled water
• sports drinks and soft drinks
• tea and coffee
• alcoholic beverages.

原产国食品标签和进口食品

注意：所有标签都必须为英文。本资料仅供参考指导 – 进口商应查阅标准信息以了解详情，并/或寻求法律咨询。

有关进口食品标签的规定已经改变，从而使消费者更容易看到自己的食品来自何处。进口食品是指不在澳大利亚种植、生产、制造或包装的食品。
这一改变意味着许多在澳大利亚超市和零售店销售的食品必须带有新的标签，清楚标识食品来自哪个国家。

2016 年《原产国食品标签信息标准》（简称“信息标准”）

如果您提供在澳大利亚零售的食品，那么根据信息标准，新的原产国标签法规将适用于您的产品。
信息标准适用于：

• 在澳大利亚零售的食品（例如在商店或市场上，或是通过自动售货机向公众出售的食品）
• 批发商销售的包装食品
• 多种未包装食品
