Labeling and Marking Requirements
Last published date:

Azerbaijani legislation imposes special rules on labeling food and agricultural products.  All labels must be in Azerbaijani.  English labels are acceptable if information in Azerbaijani is also provided.  Azerbaijani legislation also requires the following product information to appear on the label prior to the submission of the? customs clearance:

    Name and brand of the product
    Name and address of producing company
    Country of origin
    Expiration date/shelf life
    Nutrition and caloric values
    Net weight (grams or kilos)
    Usage instructions
    Name and type of packing material
    Storage instructions
    Licensing and certification information
    Special warnings, if applicable

If the product has a shelf life of less than three months, it must include the day, month, and year of expiration.  If the shelf life is more than three months but less than eighteen months, the month and year are required.  Products with a shelf life of more than three years are technically not allowed for sale in Azerbaijan.  Fruit products must be labeled.  Labels for fruit juices must specify whether the product is fruit juice (90-100% concentrate), nectar (25-50% concentrate), or a fruit drink (up to 10% concentrate).

Global Business Navigator Chatbot Beta

Welcome to the Global Business Navigator, an artificial intelligence (AI) Chatbot from the International Trade Administration (ITA). This tool, currently in beta version testing, is designed to provide general information on the exporting process and the resources available to assist new and experienced U.S. exporters. The Chatbot, developed using Microsoft’s Azure AI services, is trained on ITA’s export-related content and aims to quickly get users the information they need. The Chatbot is intended to make the benefits of exporting more accessible by understanding non-expert language, idiomatic expressions, and foreign languages.

Limitations

As a beta product, the Chatbot is currently being tested and its responses may occasionally produce inaccurate or incomplete information. The Chatbot is trained to decline out of scope or inappropriate requests. The Chatbot’s knowledge is limited to the public information on the Export Solutions web pages of Trade.gov, which covers a wide range of topics on exporting. While it cannot provide responses specific to a company’s product or a specific foreign market, its reference pages will guide you to other relevant government resources and market research. Always double-check the Chatbot’s responses using the provided references or by visiting the Export Solutions web pages on Trade.gov. Do not use its responses as legal or professional advice. Inaccurate advice from the Chatbot would not be a defense to violating any export rules or regulations.

Privacy

The Chatbot does not collect information about users and does not use the contents of users’ chat history to learn new information. All feedback is anonymous. Please do not enter personally identifiable information (PII), sensitive, or proprietary information into the Chatbot. Your conversations will not be connected to other interactions or accounts with ITA. Conversations with the Chatbot may be reviewed to help ITA improve the tool and address harmful, illegal, or otherwise inappropriate questions.

Translation

The Chatbot supports a wide range of languages. Because the Chatbot is trained in English and responses are translated, you should verify the translation. For example, the Chatbot may have difficulty with acronyms, abbreviations, and nuances in a language other than English.
