Nutrition labelling requirements in Kosovo

Packaged food sold in Kosovo must carry a nutrition declaration under Law No. 03/L-016 on Food - AUV, EU 1169/2011-aligned. This page covers the Kosovo - AUV (EU 1169-aligned) format: Albanian/Serbian EU-style nutrition declaration. A compliant Kosovo nutrition label declares 7 mandatory nutrients: energy, protein, fat, saturated fat, carbohydrate, total sugars and sodium. Values are declared per 100 g or 100 ml, with energy in both kcal and kJ, and sodium rather than salt. The panel is headed "Vlera ushqyese / Nutrition declaration". Albanian and Serbian must both appear on pack. There is no mandatory front-of-pack warning scheme. NFL builds a print-ready Kosovo nutrition label from your recipe, applying the rounding rules and reference intakes for Kosovo automatically, and exports it as PDF, PNG, SVG, JPG or EPS.
