Nutrition labelling requirements in El Salvador

Packaged food sold in El Salvador must carry a nutrition declaration under RTCA 67.01.60:10. This page covers the El Salvador - RTCA 67.01.60:10 format: Same RTCA base via MINSAL / Dirección de Salud Ambiental. A compliant Salvadoran nutrition label declares 9 mandatory nutrients: energía, proteínas, grasa total, grasa saturada, grasa trans, carbohidratos totales, azúcares totales, fibra dietética and sodio. Values are declared per serving as sold, with energy in kcal, and sodium rather than salt. The panel is headed "Información Nutricional". Spanish is required on pack. There is no mandatory front-of-pack warning scheme. El Salvador adopts RTCA 67.01.60:10 rather than writing its own labelling text, so a label built to that standard travels across every market that adopted it. NFL builds a print-ready Salvadoran nutrition label from your recipe, applying the rounding rules and reference intakes for El Salvador automatically, and exports it as PDF, PNG, SVG, JPG or EPS.
