A new list of goods subject to mandatory labeling has been approved, with individual deadlines by category

Who is affected

Manufacturers, importers, distributors, retail chains, and other participants in the turnover of consumer goods. Primarily the turnover of tobacco products, beer and beer-based beverages, certain types of food products, dietary supplements, light industry goods, cosmetics and perfumery, household chemicals, toys, and motor oils.

What changes

The list of goods subject to labeling and the dates of its introduction have been defined by a new order and set out in a new edition. Different start dates for mandatory labeling have been established for various product categories; therefore, applying a single date to the entire product range will lead to errors. Applicability is determined simultaneously by the EAEU FEACN code and the product name.

List of changes

• The list of goods subject to labeling and the dates of introduction are set out in a new edition
• A separate start date for mandatory labeling has been established for each product category
• When classifying a product as part of the list, it is necessary to be guided simultaneously by the EAEU FEACN code and the product name
• Beer and beer-based beverages: products in kegs and bottles starting from February 1, 2026, and packaged in cans starting from January 1, 2027
• Motor oils: with respect to products manufactured starting from February 1, 2026

Effective date

The new edition of the list of goods subject to labeling, approved by Order No. 215-NQ, applies starting from September 9, 2026. The baseline Order No. 199-NQ, which defined the list, entered into force on August 14, 2026. The start dates for mandatory labeling for each category are established directly in the annex to the order and do not coincide with these dates.
