EVoLabelsHelpAllergens and label rules per market
You describe a product once; when you print, the app applies the rules of the market chosen at the top of the print preview. This page lists what changes per market. It is generated from the rules the app uses, so it always matches what is printed.
This is a summary of how the app formats labels, not legal advice. You are responsible for the label: check its content, translations and allergens, and ask a food-law adviser when unsure.
What every label carries
Name, net quantity, ingredients with allergens, a date mark (best before / use by), the business operator and nutrition, in the order the law expects (see Product types, layouts and bindings). The table adds what a market requires on top.
How to read the tables
- Label languages: printed in every label language you choose; these are required by law. "One of" means one language of the group is enough.
- Right-to-left labels: a label whose first language is Arabic, Persian or Urdu is laid out right to left; product names, numbers and Latin text inside it keep their own direction, so captions, colons and brackets stay in place.
- Energy, salt / sodium, nutrition per: you enter nutrition per 100 g or 100 ml with energy in kcal and salt in grams; the app converts (kJ, sodium in mg, per serving) and rounds per market. Decimal numbers follow the market: a comma in most of Europe and South America ("4,5 g"), a point in English-speaking, Asian and Arabic markets, Mexico and Switzerland ("4.5 g").
- Dates: in the market's order - "28.06.2026" in most of Europe, "28/06/2026" in the UK, France, Southern Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and most of Asia, "06/28/2026" in the US, "2026.06.28" in Japan, China, Korea and Hungary, "2026-06-28" in Sweden and Lithuania; Canada uses the CFIA form "2026 JN 28". Customer labels print the date mark without the time, unless the shelf life is counted in hours; kitchen labels keep the time.
- Allergens: in the EU and countries following its rules, allergens are emphasised in the ingredient list (a separate statement only for allergens the list doesn't show); elsewhere the label adds a "Contains: ..." statement.
- Front of pack: warning symbols for high sugar, fat or salt, calculated from the nutrition.
