What Missouri requires on your label

The label maker below handles all of this for you. Here is the checklist it follows, straight from Missouri's rules.

  1. 1
    Name of the cottage food production operation
    Your business name or legal name.
  2. 2
    Address of the operation
    No registration number exists to substitute for the address.
  3. 3
    Non-inspection statement
    Missouri requires a statement to this effect but mandates no exact wording; the DHSS-recommended sentence below is the safest way to comply.
  4. 4
    Best practice: product name, ingredients, allergens, net weight
    Not legally required by RSMo 196.298, but strongly recommended and expected by customers.
Required wording, added to your label automatically
This product is home-produced and processed and the production area has not been inspected by the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services.
  • The statute requires only your name, address, and a non-inspection statement; any wording conveying non-inspection complies, and the sentence above is DHSS's recommended version.
  • No font size or color rules apply.
  • Last substantive change was HB 1697 (effective August 28, 2022): cap removed, online sales and in-state shipping allowed.
