Draft of amendment on labeling requirements for food additives containing ingredients of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) 1. The regulation is established under the provisions of Paragraph 2 of Article 24 of the Act Governing Food Safety and Sanitation (hereinafter referred to as the Act). 2. The GMOs referred in this regulation comply with the GMOs authorized by Paragraph 2 of Article 21 of the Act. Food additives that contains food additives produced from GMOs or GMOs shall display the words genetically-modified or with genetic modification. Food additives that uses GMOs directly during the manufacturing process yet the final product does not contain transgenic DNA fragment or transgenic proteins shall display following one of words, (1) genetically-modified, with genetic modification or use genetically modified ( organisms) (2) this product is made of genetically modified ( organisms), but do not contain any transgenic DNA fragment or transgenic proteins or this product s raw materials contain genetically modified ( organisms), but do not contain
any transgenic DNA fragment or transgenic proteins. (3) this product do not contain any transgenic DNA fragment or transgenic proteins, but is made of genetically modified ( organisms), or this product do not contain any transgenic DNA fragment or transgenic protein, but with genetically modified ( organisms). 3. The labeling requirements shall not apply to foods containing material which contains, consists of or is produced from GMOs in a proportion no higher than 3 per cent of the food ingredients considered individually or food consisting of a single ingredient, provided that this presence is adventitious or technically unavoidable. 4. Food additives contains non-gmos which exist domestic approvals to food of GMOs may display the words un-genetically-modified or with un-genetic modification and could displays the words the proportion of material which contains, consists of or is produced from GMOs considered individually is approved for use in a regulation of (country)or other synonymous terms or the proportion of material which contains, consists of or is produced from GMOs considered individually.
5. Based on this regulation, the labeling method shall be displayed after the name of the product and the ingredients in principle, or other obvious locations of the container or packaging. The length and the width of the font shall as following, (1) Labeling genetically-modified, with genetic modification or use genetically modified (organisms) shall make a distinction with other words, and the length and the width of the font shall not be less than 2 mm. (2) Labeling this product is made of genetically modified (organisms), but do not contain any transgenic DNA fragment or transgenic proteins, this product s raw materials contain genetically modified (organisms), but do not contain any transgenic DNA fragment or transgenic proteins, this product do not contain any transgenic DNA fragment or transgenic proteins, but is made of genetically modified (organisms), or this product do not contain any transgenic DNA fragment or transgenic protein, but with genetically modified (organisms), the length and the width of shall not be less than 2 mm.
(3) Labeling un-genetically-modified or with un-genetic modification, the length and the width of the font do not be stipulated.
