Hello Everyone,

We will export the food products to Jamaica, but not sure about how to declare the ingredients on the label. We current make the ingredient list complied with US FDA regulations, but would like to confirm if it's also complied with Jamaica's labeling regulations.

I tried to search, but didn't find one. Does anyone know food labeling regulations in Jamaica?

Thank you in advance.

VT

The Bureau os Standards in Jamaica would be the body that you need to contact.
They have a website (www.jbs.org.jm/) which can be reviewed to see how you go about getting the standards for Jamaica

Hi Krissy,

Thanks so much for your info. Do you happen to know for all imported food products, we need to declare "Imported by + Distributor name in Jamaica" on the label in addition to declare "Manufactuered by + Processor name"?
