Nutrition labelling requirements in Mozambique

Packaged food sold in Mozambique must carry a nutrition declaration under INNOQ - NM (Decreto 25/2013 + Codex CAC/GL 2-1985). This page covers the Mozambique - INNOQ Decreto 25/2013 format: Portuguese per Instituto Nacional de Normalização. A compliant Mozambican nutrition label declares 7 mandatory nutrients: energia, proteínas, gorduras, gorduras saturadas, hidratos de carbono, açúcares and sódio. 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 "Informação Nutricional". Portuguese is required on pack. There is no mandatory front-of-pack warning scheme. NFL builds a print-ready Mozambican nutrition label from your recipe, applying the rounding rules and reference intakes for Mozambique automatically, and exports it as PDF, PNG, SVG, JPG or EPS.
