Tunisia: Order on Food Labeling and Presentation of Prepackaged Foods

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

This report contains an unofficial translation of Tunisia’s Order concerning mandatory labeling, nutrition labeling and claims, as well as labeling and claims relative to special dietary uses and medical purposes. The Order applies to all prepackaged foodstuffs intended for consumption, mass caterers and certain aspects relating to their presentation and advertising. The Order was earlier notified to the WTO as G/TBT/N/TUN/18 and G/TBT/N/TUN/20 with the purpose of updating Tunisia’s regulations and harmonization with European and international legislation. In the case of imports, only products, which have not exceeded half of their expiry date, may enter Tunisia.
