Foreword JETRO compiles English materials in order to widely introduce Japan’s regulations as well as relevant laws and systems to foreign parties involved. The purpose are wide-ranging, from introducing vigorous Japanese measures taken for opening its market as well as key revisions of regulations and standards, to supporting promotion of exports as well as familiarity of standardization in industries of foreign countries and heightening international understanding of Japanese systems. We hope this publication is helpful in understanding Japanese laws,standards and systems.

Instead of the labeling of date of manufacture or processing previously performed, two kinds of limit dating have been introduced. (1) For a food whose quality may rapidly deteriorate when stored under the specified condition. "use-by-date" shall be labeled. (2) For a food whose quality may deteriorate comparatively slowly. "date of minimum durability" shall be labeled. Instead of "date of minimum durability", the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare permits to label "best-before-date". too.

The labeling shall be done in the following way."use-by-date: Heisei 11, December 10", "use-by-date: 11.12. 10", or "use-by-date: 99. 12. 10".

However, if it is recognized that such indications are difficult, the year, month and day may be labeled in such 6 digits, of which 2 digits for each (for the year of grace, its last two digits) as "use-by-date 111210".

As for box lunches. instruction shall be given to state even the time at need. In cases of milk, cream, fermented milk, lactic bacteria fermented beverage and milk drink

contained in paper, aluminum foil or other tightly-stoppered container, the labeling of limit date can be replaced by merely indicating the date.

In case of stating lot number, plant code and other codes in parallel with indication of limit dating. their statement shall be done by such way as the following example for clear understanding of the indication of the limit dating. Any indication to allow unclear labeling of the limit dating by such way to state the year. month and day by six digits of which 2 digits for each, as "991210" and stating the lot number "A63" in parallel, etc. , shall not be permitted.

(Example) "use-by-date: Heisei 11 December 10. A63"

Date of minimum durability shall be labeled as "date of minimum durability: 2000, March 20", "date of minimum durability: 00. 03. 20" etc. Use of Heisei for year may be permitted. It is no problem to indicate as "date of minimum durability: 000320" in six digits.

In case where the term from the day of manufacturing or processing to the date of minimum durability exceeds 3 months, and where the indication of the year, month and day is replaced by the indication of the year and month which are preceded by the letters indicating the date of minimum durability, the year and last month considering from the month where the day is belonging to shall be indicated. However, this is not applied to the case where the date of minimum durability is the last day of the month.

In case where the term from the day of manufacture or processing to the date of minimum durability exceeds 3 months and the date of minimum durability is indicated by the notching method (a method of indicating the date by notching the site of the date on the periphery of the label, which is usually made for beer), indication of the date of minimum durability may be performed on the label that "the date of minimum durability is stated on the periphery of the label by the notching method."

Concerning stating lot number, plant code and the other codes in parallel. confer the use-by-date. As far as alcoholic beverages; mineral waters, frozen fruit beverages, bulk fruit juice and other soft drinks contained in glass bottles (excluding those with paper seals) or polyethylene container-packages are concerned, the labeling of limit dating can be omitted. Limit dating of citrus fruits and bananas in container-packages can be omitted. Processed foods other than margarine, alcoholic beverages, soft drinks, meat products, fish meat ham and sausages, whale meat ham, beans containing cyanide compound, frozen foods , irradiated foods, and foods packed intcontainer-packages and sterilized under pressure, the limit dating can be omitted excepting those in cans, bottles, barrels and jars.

9. Labeling of Food Additives Contained in Food

1. Food additives to be declared on food labeling

Food additives contained in foods* are required to be declared on labeling of food, except cases mentioned in 3. below.

* Limited to foods listed in Table 3 of Enforcement Regulations of the Food Sanitation Law

2. Declaration of food additives

Food additives contained in food shall be declared by substance name (incl. abbreviation, etc.), both substance name and category name, or collective name.

(1) Declaration by substance name

(a) "Designated food additives" shall be declared by substance names or synonyms provided in Table 2 of Enforcement Regulations of the Food Sanitation Law. They may be stated also by abbreviated names mentioned in the Notice from Director of the Environmental Health Bureau, Ministry of Health and Welfare (Notice No. 56 of Food Chemical Div., dated May 23, 1996). In case other additives of same function are used together, they may be stated by such simplified way as examples shown in the same Notice.

(b) "Existing food additives" shall be declared by substance names listed in the List of Existing Food Additives. They may be declared also by names of articles (incl. subdivided articles), synonyms, abbreviated names or classification names mentioned in the attached document No. 1 of the same Notice.

(c) "Natural flavoring agent"* shall be declared by names of source substances or synonyms mentioned in the attached document No. 2 of the same Notice. Food additives not mentioned in the document shall be declared by scientifically appropriate names by which the food additives can be identified. Besides, a letter of "flavoring agent" is required to be attached.

(d) "Substances which are generally provided as food and are used as food additives" shall be declared by names or abbreviated names mentioned in the attached document No. 3 of the same Notice. Food additives not mentioned in the document shall be declared by scientifically appropriate names by which the food additives can be identified.

* "Natural flavoring agent" means additives, intended for use for flavoring food, which are substances obtained from animals or plants, or mixtures thereof.

(2) Declaration by both substance name and category name

A food additive shall be declared by both substance name and category name for use when it is used for one of the following eight purposes:

Antimolding agent, antioxidant, bleaching agent, color, color fixative, preservative, sweetener, or thickener/stabilizer/gelling agent.

(3) Declaration by collective name A flavoring agent which generally performs its function by combining more than one

component or such food additives as organic acids or amino acids, etc., which are ubiquitously distributed in food may be declared by the following collective names or category names which collectively describe such functions:

Acidity regulator, bittering agent, chewing gum base, "choumiryou" (flavouring for taste-related purposes), coagulant for "tofu" (soybean curd), emulsifier, enzyme, flavouring, food acid, glazing

- 201 -

Page 205: Specifications and Standards for Foods, Food … Food Additives - 2003.pdfSEH 2002 09 Specifications and Standards for Foods, Food Additives, etc. Under The Food Sanitation Law (ABSTRACTS)

agent (additive for glossy or protective coatings), "kansui" (alkaline agent for preparation of Chinese noodles), plasticizer for chewing gum, raising agent, and yeast nutrient.

The definitions and scope of food additives falling under these 14 categories are prescribed in the mentioned Notice. .

3. Exemption from labeling

(1) Processing aid Processing aids are substances that are added to a food during the processing of such food

but are removed from the food before it is prepared in its finished food, that are added to a food during processing, are converted into components ubiquitously present in the food, and do not significantly increase the level of the constituents naturally found in food, or that are added to a food for their technical or functional effect in the processing but are present in the finished food at insignificant level and do not have any technical or functional effect in that food.

(2) Carry-over Carry-over is a food additive carried over into a food in insignificant level to perform a

technological function in that food as a result of the use of raw materials or other ingredients in which the additive was used.

(3) Food additives for dietary supplements Food additives which may be considered to be used as dietary supplements are described in

the mentioned Notice. An additive usually used as dietary supplement, however, when used for the purpose other than dietary supplements, is not exempted from the labeling.

4. Notice in the labeling

(1) In any case, it is strictly forbidden to claim "natural" or any expression implying "natural".

(2) In case citrus fruits and banana are sold loose, imazalil, o-phenyl phenol, sodium o-phenyl- phanate, diphenyl or thiabendazole used shall be indicated at the sales place.

(3) Indication of the substance name, abbreviated name or class name shall be done by the names indicated in Enforcement Regulations of the Food Sanitation Law, List of Existing Additives, or Notice issued by the Director General of Environmental Health Bureau, it may be, however, done either in Hiragana, Katakana or Chinese characters so long as the indication will not be misunderstood by consumers.

(4) For aspartame preparation of food containing aspartame, a statement to the effect that the product is an L-pheylalanine compound shall be done.

Example1) Sweetener (aspartame・L-phenylalanine compound)2) Sweetener (aspartame; L-phenylalanine compound)3) Sweetener (aspartame (L-phenylalanine compound))

(5) Omission of labelingLabeling can be omitted for those products, the surface area of the container/package of which is not more than 30 ㎠.

Notes to Japanese Standards For Use Of Food Additives (Aug. 2002) relative to Flavorings.

1. While Aliphatic Higher Alcohols (excluding substances generally recognized as highly toxic) are permitted, alcohols of C1-C5 are not permitted. However, Fusel oil appears on the Japanese List of plant or animal sources of natural flavorings 2. Aliphatic Higher Aldehydes (excluding substances generally recognized as highly toxic) are permitted, aldehydes of C1-C5 are not permitted. However, acetals of these aldehydes are OK as they fall under the permitted class of “Ethers”. 3. Note that no specific Pyridines, Pyrazines, Pyrroles, Furans (except Furfural and its derivatives), thiophenes etc. appear on the list (of Japanese Standards For Use Of Food Additives). This, for example, would eliminate alkyl pyrazines (e.g. trimethylpyrazine), alkyl pyridines (e.g., pentylpyridine) etc. from flavor usage. However, as the general classes of ketones, aldehydes, esters, ethers, lactones, thiols, and thiol ethers are permitted – the use of materials such as appear in the following example listing would appear OK. 2-Acetylpyrazine 2-Isobutyl-3-methoxypyrazine 2-Acetylpyridine Methyl Nicotinate 2-Formylpyrrole 2-Acetylpyrrole 2-Methylfuran-3-thiol 2,5-Dimethyl-4-hydroxy-3(2H)-furanone 2-Methylthiophene-3-thiol Obviously, literally many hundreds of examples of flavoring materials commonly used in the EU and USA would fall into the permitted categories of fatty acids, lactones, ketones, aldehydes, esters, ethers, thiols, thiol ethers etc. even though they are not specifically listed as individual flavor chemicals in the Japanese list.
