What is Food Labelling

Food labelling is the label written, printed, or graphically presented on the packaging accompanying the food or beverage.

The application for label review was introduced by Ministry of Health Malaysia (MOH) as one of the ways to ensure food products must comply with the Food Act 1983 and Food Regulations 1985 before the products are sold in the market.

Food products are not required to register before they are sold, but they must comply with all rules & labelling requirements.

Example: NatureRich Mixed Multigrain with Soy Protein & Matcha
Drink (Protein Drink) label that has obtained MOH approval
before being sold in the market
