- The use of a single second affixed label to declare certain India-specific label elements is permitted in the principal display area (please see the link for guidance on specific label elements). If two labels are affixed, the name of the product printed on both labels must match exactly (i.e. “poultry meat”, “chicken leg quarters”, etc.) and neither label may be easily separated from the packaging.
- The smallest individual unit of packaging must be labeled for all retail products (i.e. both the outside carton or container and the individually wrapped packages inside). For wholesale products only, the outside carton or container must be labeled, but the individually-wrapped products inside do not need to be labeled.
FSIS advises exporters to work with their importers in India to ensure that the India-specific labeling requirements are met. Examples of compliant labels for poultry and poultry products are attached here for reference.
Although FSIS recognizes the eligibility of all FSIS inspected establishments, exporters are advised to confirm the eligibility of the producing establishment with their importer.
