This report was prepared by the Office of Agricultural Affairs of the
USDA/Foreign Agricultural Service in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for U.S.
exporters of domestic food and agricultural products. While every
possible care was taken in the preparation of this report, information
provided may not be completely accurate either because policies have
changed since its preparation, or because clear and consistent
information about these policies was not available. It is highly
recommended that U.S. exporters verify the full set of import
requirements with their foreign customers, who are normally best
equipped to research such matters with local authorities, before any
goods are shipped. FINAL IMPORT APPROVAL OF ANY PRODUCT IS SUBJECT TO
THE IMPORTING COUNTRY\'S RULES AND REGULATIONS AS INTERPRETED BY BORDER
OFFICIALS AT THE TIME OF PRODUCT ENTRY.

# SECTION 1. FOOD LAWS

The Food Act 1983 and the Food Regulations 1985 of Malaysia govern the
various aspects of food quality control including food standards, food
hygiene, food import and export, food advertisement and accreditation of
laboratories. Specific compositional and labeling requirements were
developed for particular food products. The content requirements are not
restrictive for U.S. products. However because over half the Malaysian
population is Muslim, labeling requirements for products containing pork
and alcohol are very strict. Attention should be given to adhering to
Malaysian labeling requirements to avoid any problems at the port of
entry or on the retail level.

Extracts from the Food Regulations 1985 pertaining to labeling
requirements, etc., are cited below.

# SECTION 11. LABELING REQUIREMENTS

***A. General Requirements***

> ***Language to be used***
>
> Where the food is produced, prepared or packaged in Malaysia, the
> language to be used is Bahasa Malaysia and in the case of imported
> food, the language may be in Bahasa Malaysia or English, and in either
> case may include translation thereof in any other language.
>
> ***Particulars in labeling***
>
> \(1\) The appropriate designation of the food or a description of the
> food containing the common name of its principle ingredients.
> \"Appropriate designation\" means a name or description, being a
> specific, not generic name or description, which shall indicate to the
> prospective purchaser the true nature of the food to which it is
> applied. The lettering on the label shall be so prominent in height,
> visual emphasis, and position to be conspicuous by comparison with any
> other matter appearing on the label.

(2) In the case of mixed or blended food, words which indicate that the
    contents are mixed or blended, as the case may be, and such word
    shall be conjoined with the appropriate designation of the food, in
    the following form:

\"mixed\" (here insert the appropriate designation of the food); or
\"blended\" (here insert the appropriate designation of the food):

> Provided that the word \"mixed\" or \"blended\" shall not be conjoined
> with the appropriate designation of any mixed or blended food which
> does not comply with the standard prescribed by these Regulations
>
> \(3\) where food contains beef or pork, or its derivatives, or lard, a
> statement as to the presence in that food of such beef or pork, or its
> derivatives, or lard, in the form ‑
>
> \"CONTAINS (state whether beef or pork, or its derivatives, or lard,
> as the
>
> case may be)\"
>
> Or in any other words to this effect;

\(4\) A statement as to the presence of alcohol, in capital bold‑faced
lettering of a non‑serif character not smaller than 6 point, in the
form‑

> \"CONTAINS ALCOHOL\"
>
> or in any other words to this effect. This statement shall appear
> immediately below the appropriate designation of the food.
>
> \(5\) Where the food consists of two or more ingredients, other than
> water, food additives and nutrient supplement, the appropriate
> designation of each of those ingredients in descending order of
> proportion by weight and (if required) a declaration of the proportion
> of such ingredient.
>
> \(6\) Where the food contains food additive, a statement as to the
> presence in the beer of such food additive, in the form‑
>
> \"contains permitted (state type of the relevant food additive)\"
>
> provided that in the case of coloring substance or flavoring substance
> it shall be sufficient to state the common name or the appropriate
> designation of that food additive in place of the chemical name.
>
> \(7\) A statement of the minimum net weight or volume or the number of
> the content of the package; in the case of food packed in liquid, a
> statement of the minimum drained weight of the food;
>
> \(8\) In the case of imported food, the name and business address of
> manufacturer or packer or the owner of the rights of manufacture, or
> the agent of any of them, and the name and business address of the
> importer in Malaysia and the name of the country of the origin of the
> food. Please note that for the above purpose, a telegraphic or code
> address or an address at a Post Office, or the name of the company or
> the trade name of the manufacturer, packer, importer or seller

smaller than 10 point lettering, and with equal prominence with any
other matter appearing on or attached to the package.

> \(3\) Every label shall be legible and durably marked either on the
> material of the package or on material firmly or permanently attached
> to the package.
>
> \(4\) A label may be firmly placed inside a package if ‑

-   the package is made of clear transparent material;

-   the food contained in the package is not ready for direct
    consumption or in the case of food ready for consumption, is
    completely enclosed in its natural shell or pod or interior wrapper
    such that it has no direct contact or is not likely to come into
    contact with the label

> of that food, as the case may be.

\(ii\) For the purposes of sub regulation (i), the expression‑

-   "expiry date", in relation to a package food, means the date after
    which the food, when kept in accordance with any storage conditions
    set out in the label of such food, may not retain the quality
    attributes normally expected by a consumer; and

-   \"date of minimum durability\", in relation to a package of food,
    means the date until which the food, when kept in accordance with
    any storage conditions set out in the label of such food, will
    retain any specific qualities for which tacit or express claim has
    been made

> \(iii\) For the purposes of these Regulation, only marking in clear,
> unmistakable date which can be correctly interpreted by the consumer
> shall constitute date marking. The marking of date in code form for
> lot identification does not constitute date marking.
>
> \(iv\) When in a package intended for sale, shall bear or have
> embossed, on the label or elsewhere on the package, a date marking in

# SECTION VI. OTHER REGULATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS

All food consignments are subject to random checking and sampling at 28
entry points all over the country to ensure food items imported into the
country are safe and comply with the prescribed standards and
regulations. Foods will be destroyed if they are found unfit for human
consumption. Consignment of meat and meat products, milk and milk
products, pork and pork products imported into Malaysia are subject to
veterinary inspection by the authorized officer(s) of the Dept. of
Veterinary Services (DVS) at the point of entry on arrival in Malaysia.
Random samples will then be collected for laboratory testing and DVS has
the right to reject, destroy, or further detain any consignment when
deemed required.

Health and medicinal food products need to be registered. Meat and milk
and their related products require import license. Product registration
and application for import licenses are done through Malaysian
registered companies. Fees are imposed for import licenses. Each of the
paragraphs below has listed specific requirements for the product group
that would be useful for U.S. exporters.

***Plant And Plant Products***

The import of plant and plant products into Malaysia is governed by the
Agricultural Pests and Noxious Plants (Import/Export) Regulations 1981.
The aim of plant quarantine regulations is to control the import of
plants for the purpose of prevention of introduction of pests and
disease from foreign countries. The inspection and certification of
consignment of plants, plant parts or plant products, processed or
otherwise must conform with the current phytosanitary requirements.
Applications for Phytosanitary Certificate (P.C.) are to be made on Form
PQ 9 obtainable from any Plant Quarantine office and submitted at least
four working days before the proposed date of inspection. A certified
true copy of the Import Permit will be required for the purposes of
meeting the phytosanitary requirements. An import permit is issued by
the Director General of the Agriculture Department. All conditions for
import of plants are specified in this permit. As most of the conditions
to be fulfilled need to be undertaken in the country of origin of the
plants, it is vital that the importer informs the supplier before‑hand
of the requirements.

Applications for plant permit should be made to:

Director of Crop Protection Branch, Department of Agriculture, Jln
Gallagher, Kuala Lumpur, Tel: (603) 2697-3077; Fax: +(6-03) 2697-7205

***Live Animals/Birds***

The Department of Veterinary Services (DVS), empowered by the Animal

***Meat And Meat Products (except pork)***

The Department of Veterinary Services (DVS) is responsible for ensuring
products of animal origin for human consumption are hygienic, healthy,
wholesome and are suitable for consumption. Under the Control of
Slaughter Rules 1975, all meat and livestock products imported into the
country must be certified halal and the products must originate from
slaughterhouses which have been inspected and approved by the Malaysian
veterinary and religious authorities (JAKIM -- the Islamic Development
Foundation of Malaysia). NOTE: For cattle slaughter, it is important to
note that the application of thoracic sticking, a procedure in which
major blood vessels around the heart are cut to more quickly drain the
blood and assure a more humane slaughter, is not acceptable to the
Malaysian Islamic authorities.

In addition to certifying the plants for halal export, JAKIM will also
approve and appoint U.S. Islamic Centers to monitor and audit the
"halal" status of the approved plants and to issue halal certificates
for all export consignments. The Islamic Centers are duty-bound to
record all monitoring and auditing activities of the approved plants and
to submit these reports to JAKIM upon request. Guidelines on the
appointment of foreign Islamic organizations are found in JAKIM website
at <http://www.islam.gov.my/e-halal/glossary.php>.

Assistance from various U.S. cooperator boards representing the industry
(such as US Meat Export Federation and USA Poultry and Egg Export
Council) may be solicited to arrange for the inspection. Import license,
Veterinary Health Certificate (signed or endorsed by a competent
veterinary officer of the Government Veterinary Authority of the country
of export) and Halal Certificate (issued by approved U.S. Islamic
Centers) must accompany each consignment. All meat must be properly
labeled indicating establishment number of the abattoir and packing
plant; lot number, date of production and type of slaughter (muslim).

Wisma Tani, Podium Block, Lot 4G1, Prescinct 4, Putrajaya. Tel: +60-3
8870 2000. Website: http://agrolink.moa.my/jph

***Health And Medicinal Food Products***

All health and medicinal food products need to be classified by the
National Pharmaceutical Control Bureau (NPCB). Under the Dangerous Drugs
Act 1952, Control of Drugs and Cosmetics Regulations 1984, NPCB will
determine if the health or medicinal food products need to be
registered. An import license may be necessary and issued by the
Compliance Unit. In order to register with the NPCB, the exporter or
appointed distributor need to write to NPCB stating the name of the
products, ingredients and its percentage, claims/usage and attach a copy
of the label/product literature.

**TEST FOR PACKAGES**

A. TEST FOR PACKAGES, APPLIANCES, CONTAINERS AND VESSELS USED FOR
STORAGE OF FOOD

1\. *Preparation:*

> The surface of the ware to be tested shall be washed in water
> containing detergent and rinsed with clean water. The surface to be
> tested shall not be handled thereafter.
>
> All remnants of water shall be removed from the washed ware by rinsing
> it with leaching solution that comprises 4 per cent of acetic acid in
> water v/v.

2\. *Test:*

> The ware shall then be filled with the leaching solution at room
> temperature to the maximum capacity‑ of the ware.
>
> The ware shall be covered to minimise contamination and shall be left
> at room temperature for 24 hours.
>
> After the period of 24 hours, the leaching solution shall be
> thoroughly stiffed and a portion shall be removed for analysis.
>
> The leachate shall not contain antimony, arsenic, cadmium or lead
> above the following limits, expressed in ppm:

COOKING

1\. Preparation:

As in A above.

2\. Test:

> The ware shall be heated to 120\'C and filled to two‑thirds of its
> effective volume with boiling leaching solution (4 per cent of acetic
> acid in water v/v). The vessels shall be covered, by its own lid, if
> any, and the leaching solution shall be kept boiling gently for 2
> hours. Leaching solution shall be added periodically to ensure that
> the area of contact is not diminished. The vessel shall then be left
> at room temperature for 22 hours.
>
> After 22 hours, the volume of the leaching solution shall be restored
> to two‑third of the effective volume of the vessel. After thorough
> stirring, a portion of the leaching solution shall be removed for
> analysis.
>
> The leachate shall not contain antimony, arsenic, cadmium, or lead
> above the following limits, expressed in ppm:
