On 1 September 2017, the Japanese Government issued a new order amending the legislation on the indication of the “Origin of ingredients” for food processed in Japan.

The new rule states that the label of all food produced or processed in Japan (with some exceptions and in any case excluding imported foods) must indicate the origin of the main ingredients.
