Nutrition labelling requirements in Paraguay

Packaged food sold in Paraguay must carry a nutrition declaration under INAN + Mercosur GMC Res. 46/03 & 47/03. This page covers the Paraguay - INAN + Mercosur format: Spanish (Guaraní optional); Mercosur GMC Res. 46/03 & 47/03. A compliant Paraguayan nutrition label declares 8 mandatory nutrients: valor energético, carbohidratos, proteínas, grasas totales, grasas saturadas, grasas trans, fibra alimentaria and sodio. Values are declared per serving as sold, with energy in both kcal and kJ, 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. NFL builds a print-ready Paraguayan nutrition label from your recipe, applying the rounding rules and reference intakes for Paraguay automatically, and exports it as PDF, PNG, SVG, JPG or EPS.
