## Scope of this guide

Includes an application note linked to official sources, not a completed regulatory review for every product category.

PRODUCT REVIEW IN PRACTICE

## Colombia: product dossier priorities

For Colombia, review a Spanish sauce label's nutrition calculations and front wording against country sources. Track recipe code, serving and imagery together to avoid mixing hot and sweet variants within one artwork template.

## Colombia: warning placement depends on package shape

INVIMA’s text of Resolution 2492/2022 amends Resolution 810/2021 and identifies corrections made by Resolution 254/2023. It describes different warning placement for general packages and cylindrical or conical containers. Transferring an approved layout from a flat carton to a beverage bottle is therefore insufficient. Assess the principal display area, package shape and required symbols together. Supplementary labels for imported products have their own conditions. Preserve the underlying instrument, amendment and correction chain in the review dossier.

## How is the label review dossier prepared?

Collect artwork, recipe, allergen evidence and importer details for the same product version. Our working method explains the shared document-preparation and reporting steps.

**Packaging, recipe and evidence in one review dossier.**Knowing which product version a finding concerns matters as much as the correction itself. Maintain file and revision tracking throughout the assignment.

## Sources and research method

Sources are selected research references. An archive record does not confirm current legal effect; national adoption of Codex texts requires separate verification.
