PRODUCT LABELLING

In order to comply with Resolution No. 301 of the Georgian Government on Provision of Food Information to Consumers, all food items sold in Georgia must be appropriately labeled. This applies to both domestically produced and imported food products. 

The Georgian Certification Organization is available to support you with various aspects of labeling, including:

  • Designing a suitable label for your product.
  • Assisting in the preparation of a declaration.
  • Creating a label data log to ensure accurate information is included.

The certification cost is composed of two main components:

  1. The fee for consulting services associated with the implementation of the international standard.
  2. The external audit fee for evaluating compliance with the international standard.

The precise cost of consulting services and certification can vary based on factors such as the company's industry, size, and specific characteristics. Therefore, it is vital to diligently complete the certification application, ensuring that all details are accurately provided.

The ISO certificate remains valid for a period of three years. During this time, the client is subject to annual audits to ensure continuous compliance with the requirements of the implemented standard.

According to the regulations established by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), it is not allowed for the consultant and the certifying body to be affiliated or part of the same organization. It is required to maintain independence and impartiality in the certification process. This separation ensures objectivity and prevents any potential conflicts of interest.

It is recommended by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) to select certification bodies whose issued certificates can be verified for validity on the official website of the International Accreditation Forum (IAF).
