To facilitate traceability of food products for food safety, the Food Regulations require the country of origin of the food product to be declared on the labels of prepacked food.

The country of origin is the last processing place of the food.

To qualify as a “Product of Singapore” / “Made in Singapore”, the product should undergo significant manufacturing process, which usually changes the nature of the original product, in a licensed premise in Singapore. Food that are imported in bulk and packed in Singapore only, may be labelled as “Packed in Singapore” as the country of origin."
