Nutrition labelling requirements in Myanmar

Packaged food sold in Myanmar must carry a nutrition declaration under National Food Law (1997, am. 2013) - Myanmar FDA / Codex-aligned. This page covers the Myanmar - FDA (National Food Law) format: Myanmar Codex baseline via Myanmar FDA. A compliant Myanmar 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 "Nutrition Information". Burmese is required on pack. There is no mandatory front-of-pack warning scheme. NFL builds a print-ready Myanmar nutrition label from your recipe, applying the rounding rules and reference intakes for Myanmar automatically, and exports it as PDF, PNG, SVG, JPG or EPS.
