01. Declaration of Identity -- Consumer Package. A declaration of identity on a consumer package must appear on the principal display panel, and positively identify the commodity in the package by its common or usual name, description, generic term, or the like.

02. Parallel Identity Declaration -- Consumer Package. A declaration of identity on a consumer package must appear generally parallel to the base on which the package rests as it is designed to be displayed.

03. Declaration of Identity -- Non-Consumer Package. A declaration of identity on a non-consumer package must appear on the outside of a package and positively identify the commodity in the package by its common or usual name, description, generic term, or the like.

04. Declaration of Responsibility -- Consumer and Non-Consumer Packages.

a. Any package kept, offered, or exposed for sale, or sold, at any place other than on the premises where packed must specify conspicuously on the label of the package the name and address of the manufacturer, packer, or distributor. The name must be the actual corporate name, or, when not incorporated, the name under which the business is conducted. The address must include street address, city, state, and zip code; however, the street address may be omitted if this is shown in a current city directory or telephone directory. The requirement for inclusion of the zip code must apply only to labels that have been developed or revised after July 1, 1970.

b. If a person manufactures, packs, or distributes a commodity at a place other than his principal place of business, the label may state the principal place of business in lieu of the actual place where the commodity was manufactured or packed or is to be distributed, unless such statement would be misleading. Where the commodity is not manufactured by the person whose name appears on the label, the name must be qualified by a phrase that reveals the connection such person has with such commodity, such as "Manufactured for and packed by," "Distributed by," or any other wording of similar import that expresses the facts.
