What are the labelling requirements for alcoholic beverage?

Updated by SFA
Alcoholic beverages come under “intoxicating liquors” as defined in regulation 185 of the Food Regulations and contain more than 0.5 % (v/v) alcohol at 20 degrees Celsius. Prepacked alcoholic beverages made available for sale in Singapore should bear the following mandatory information in English conspicuously and in a prominent position on their labels. (a) An acceptable common name or description which is sufficient to indicate the true nature of the product (Please refer to the Food Regulations for the standards on respective alcoholic beverages.) (b) The volumetric measure of the product (c) The name of the country of origin (d) The name and address of the importer, distributor or agent in Singapore, in the case of imported products; or the name and address of the Singapore manufacturer or vendor, in the case of locally manufactured product
