Our previous food allergy label articles focused on USA, EU, Japan,Canada, Australia and New Zealand so be sure to have a look if you are travelling to one of these regions.

Following most other countries, food labels in Venezuela must state any of the following antigens; egg, fish, crustacean, nuts, milk, soybean and processed grain products containing grain gluten (such as wheat, barley etc.). Precautionary statements are also allowed, so you may see labels such as "May contain nuts".
