Supplement label compliance check in Earlston
A written review of your supplement label against the rules that apply in Scotland, for businesses in Earlston and across Scottish Borders.
What the check covers for Earlston brands
We read your label line by line: the supplement statements, the nutrient table and %NRV maths, ingredients and allergens, claims, text size and traceability. You get a written report you can act on or pass to your designer. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, including ones from other printers. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Rules in Scotland
Label rules that apply in Earlston
Any food supplement sold from Earlston must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, overseen by Food Standards Scotland. At a local level, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers.
Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.

Common questions in Earlston
Do I need to be based in Earlston to order?
No. We take orders online from anywhere in the UK, so your location doesn’t matter. Earlston orders go out by tracked courier to TD4.
Who checks supplement labels in the Scottish Borders?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for the Scottish Borders, with national oversight from Food Standards Scotland. For advice councils must respect, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
We check against both sets of rules. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, so claims must come from the EU register and the address must be in NI or the EU. Let us know where your products go and we’ll check the label for each market.
How quickly do you review a label?
We confirm the turnaround when you send your label.
Can I see a sample before ordering?
Yes. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Earlston, so you can feel the materials and finishes.
