Last Published: 7/23/2019

Paraguayan regulations require that the country of origin be labeled on domestic and imported products.  Expiration dates are required on medical products and some consumer goods.  Health warnings on hazardous products, such as cigarettes, must be labeled in a visible place.  Imported beer is required to display detailed manufacturing and content information in Spanish, labeled at the point of packaging.  A similar regulation applies for textile products and shoes.  Soaps and detergents must be clearly labeled “tripolyphosphate-free.”
