We have a customer in one country who is planning to sell the product we make for them to their sister company which is in another country. they product sold complies with labelling requirements for country #1. They will apply the appropriate label (different language) to comply with legislation in country #2. Do we have to verify the labels being applied for sale in country #2 because we know that the product will be sold in that country? we don't own the product after it is delivered to country #1 however we are providing the certificate of free sale. 
 

Per SQF_2.4.1.1 The site shall ensure that at the time of delivery to customers finished products shall comply with food safety legislation applicable in the country of manufacture and sale. This includes compliance with legislative requirements applicable to maximum residue limits, food safety, packaging, product description, net weights, nutritional, allergen, and additive labeling, labeling of identity preserved foods, any other criteria listed under food legislation, and to relevant established industry codes of practice.

The company you are selling it to CANNOT export the product under your certificate of free sale

 

which 2 countries are involved if you don't mind sharing

Hi Scampi, we sell to a country in North America and they sell it to a country in South America.

Got it

 

Your certificate of free sale only works for sale #1

 

Sale #2 is solely the responsibility of your customer

2 Thanks

Since Scampi is right already,I just add my 2 cents from my experience.

When the sale #2 becomes high in quantity, the OEM will consider to include the content of sale #2 label in their primary packaging.

Then the verification would be needed. 

This packaging redesign is just voluntary and probably a good gesture to impress the customer.
