In the sale of packaged alcohol products, the producer or importer shall indicate the following on the alcohol containers that are in direct contact with the alcohol: 1. The name of the brand. 2. The type of product. 3. The alcohol content. 4. The country of origin of the imported products. 5. The name and address of the producer; for an import, the name and address of the importer shall also be indicated; for alcohol products produced by a contractor, the name and address of the contracting party shall also be indicated; the name and address of any repackaging producer as prescribed in Paragraph 1, Article 29 of this Act shall also be indicated. 6. The batch number. 7. The volume. 8. For alcohol products having an alcohol content of 7% or less, or which are packed in plastic or paper containers, the expiration date or bottling date shall be indicated. If the date of bottling is indicated, the date of expiration shall also be indicated. 9. "Excessive drinking endangers health" or other health warnings. 10. Other labeling required by the central competent authority. Aside from the indications for the labeling given in the preceding paragraph, alcohol may not be labeled with medical or health care terms, or with text or images that explicitly or implicitly indicate similar effects. Imported alcohol may not separately indicate any matter not indicated on the original labeling. An alcohol producer that uses an alcohol product of another producer as raw material for processing is not permitted to indicate the country of origin or the flavor of the original alcohol product or use any related terms. If the space on the surface of an alcohol container is too small to accommodate the indications required by Paragraph 1 above, a labeling tag may be used for the purpose of labeling. No false or misleading statements may be made in the labeling on the container or the external packaging or brochures of alcohol products. No translated text or terms such as "kind," "type," "style," "imitation," or any similar indications or supplemental explanations may be used to indicate production in another place of origin. The same shall be true when the product is already correctly labeled with the actual place of origin. The regulations governing the method and content of labeling and other compliance matters of alcohol will be prescribed by the central competent authority. The labeling requirements of Subparagraph 10 of Paragraph 1 of this article shall come into force 18 months after the date of their public announcement by the central competent authority.
