LABELLING
OF FOOD ADDITIVES
Labelling of food additives which is carried
out according to guidelines of Codex Stan 107-1981 shall apply to the labelling
of food additives manufactured and imported for domestic consumption.
1. The name of a food additive shall be
declared as follows:
1.1. The name of each food additive shall be
declared as follows:
- Class name
- Name of the food additive
- INS number.
The name shall be specific and indicate the
true nature of the food additive. Where a name has been officially established
for a food additive as prescribed in the International Numbering System (INS)
for food additives in Annex 2, that name and corresponding INS number shall be
used. In other cases, the common or usual name shall be declared or, where none
exists, an appropriate descriptive name shall be used.
1.2. If two or more food additives are
present in a container, their names shall be fully listed in the order of the
proportion by weight which each food additive bears to the total contents of
the container.
...
...
...
Please sign up or sign in to your
TVPL Pro Membership to see English documents.
2. Where one or more of the food additives is
subject to a quantitative limitation in a food, the quantity or proportion of
that additive shall be stated. If food ingredients are part of the preparation,
they shall be declared in the list of ingredients in descending order of
proportion.
3. The formula (chemical formula,
composition), molecular mass and other information on quality of the food
additive shall be declared.
4. Food additives with a shelf-life not
exceeding 18 months shall carry the date of minimum durability using words such
as “will keep at least until……” with the indication of day, month and year
prescribed in Point 3.8 of Provisional regulations on labelling of prepackaged
foods.
5. The words “For food use” shall be in a large
and bold font size and appear in a prominent position on the label.
6. Adequate instructions shall be given about
the manner in which the food additive is to be kept and is to be used in food.
7. The net contents shall be declared
according to the provisions of Point 3.3 of Provisional regulations on
labelling of prepackaged foods. For food additives sold in tablet form, the
declaration of the net contents shall be made by weight or the number of tables
in the package.

LABELLING OF PREPACKAGED FOODS FOR SPECIAL DIETARY USES
...
...
...
Please sign up or sign in to your
TVPL Pro Membership to see English documents.
In addition to the provisions on labelling
set out in Provisional regulations on labelling of prepackaged foods, the
labelling of foods for special dietary uses shall also comply with the
following:
1. The name of the food:
1.1. The designation “special dietary”,
“special dietetic” or an appropriate term of equivalent meaning as “diet”,
shall be used in conjunction with the name of the product.
1.2. The “diet” characterizing essential feature
shall be stated in close proximity to the name of the food.
Example: DIET SOUP
(Free saturated acids)
2. Claims as to “diet” characteristic
Any "claims” made for the foods for
special dietary uses on the label shall be in accordance with the provisions on
“Claims as to characteristics of foods” in Annex 1 and the following:
Where a food has not been modified in
accordance with Point 2 of the Provisional regulations on labelling of
prepackaged foods but is suitable for use in a particular dietary regimen
because of its natural composition, it shall not be designated “special
dietary” or "special dietetic" or any other equivalent term. However,
such a food may bear a statement on the label that “This food is by its nature
X” (X refers to the essential distinguishing characteristic), provided that
such statement does not mislead the consumer.

NUTRITION
LABELLING OF FOODS
Nutrition labelling shall comply with
guidelines of FAO/WHO (CAC/GL 2-1985) in order to ensure the nutrient
declaration and supplementary nutrition information on labels of prepackaged
foods.
1. Nutrient declaration
1.1. Listing of nutrients:
1.1.1. The declaration of the following shall
be mandatory:
a) Energy value.
b) The amounts of protein, available
carbohydrate (e.g. sugars, starch, excluding “dietary fibre”) and fat.
c) The amount of any other nutrient for which
a claim is made.
...
...
...
Please sign up or sign in to your
TVPL Pro Membership to see English documents.
1.1.2. Where a claim is made regarding the
amount and the type of carbohydrate, in addition to the requirements in 1.1.1, the
amount of total sugars and the amount of starch together with other
carbohydrate constituent(s) shall be listed.
Where a claim is made regarding the dietary
fibre content, the amount of dietary fibre shall be declared.
1.1.3. Where a claim is made regarding the
amount and type of fatty acids, the amounts of saturated fatty acids and high-degree
unsaturated fatty acids.
1.1.4. In addition to the mandatory
declaration under 1.1.1, 1.1.2 and 1.1.3, vitamins and minerals of nutritional
importance for which recommended intakes have been established (Reference RDA:
Reference Recommended Daily Allowance) shall be declared.
1.1.5. Vitamins and minerals which are
present in significant amounts(*) shall be declared.
1.1.6. In the case where a product is subject
to labelling requirements of a State standard, the provisions for nutrient
declaration set out in that standard shall take precedence over but not
conflict with the provisions of Sections 1.1.3, 1.1.4 and 1.1.5 of these
Regulations.
1.1.7. Calculation of nutrients:
a) Calculation of energy: The amount of
energy to be listed shall be calculated by using the following conversion
factors:
Carbohydrates (sugars, starch) 17
KJ/g (4 Kcal/g)
...
...
...
Please sign up or sign in to your
TVPL Pro Membership to see English documents.
Fat 37
KJ/g (9 Kcal/g)
Alcohol (Ethanol) 29
KJ/g (7 Kcal/g)
Organic acid 13
KJ/g (3 Kcal/g)
b) Calculation of protein:
The amount of protein
to be listed shall be calculated using the formula:
P = N x 6,25
Where: - P: The amount of protein
- N: The amount of total nitrogen
- 6,25: Conversion factor
...
...
...
Please sign up or sign in to your
TVPL Pro Membership to see English documents.
1.2. Presentation of nutrient content
1.2.1. The declaration of nutrient content
should be numerical.
1.2.2. Information on energy value should be
expressed in KJ and Kcal per 100g or per 100ml or per package if the package
contains only a single portion. In addition, this information may be given per
serving as quantified on the label or per portion provided that the number of
portions contained in the package is stated.
1.2.3. Information on the amounts of protein,
carbohydrate and fat in the food shall be expressed in g per 100g or per 100ml
or per package if the package contains only a single portion. In addition, this
information may be given per serving or per portion as prescribed in 1.2.2.
1.2.4. Information on the amounts of vitamins
and minerals shall be expressed in lawful measurement units of the Socialist
Republic of Vietnam or as a percentage of the reference RDA per 100g or per
100ml or per package if the package contains only a single portion. In
addition, this information may be given per serving or per portion as
prescribed in 1.2.2.
In addition, information on energy and
protein may also be expressed as percentages of reference RDA.
When reference RDA is used, reference values
according to FAO/WHO recommendations should be used. The following reference
RDA values shall be used for labelling purposes:
Energy MJ (Kcal)

1.2.5. The presence of available carbohydrates
should be declared on the label as “carbohydrates”. Where the type of
carbohydrate is declared, this declaration should follow immediately the
declaration of the total carbohydrate content in the following format:
“Carbohydrate.................g, of which
sugars ............... g”
or “X ................. g”
“X” represents the specific name of any other
carbohydrate constituent.
1.2.6. Where the amount and type of fatty
acids is declared, this declaration should follow immediately the declaration
of the total fat in accordance with Section 1.1.3. The following format should
