Australian food and beverage products sold in Australia do not use the Australian Made, Australian Grown (AMAG) logo as a standalone country of origin symbol.
From July 1, 2016, the Australian Government incorporated the Australia Made Campaign Ltd’s (AMCL) Australian Made, Australian Grown (AMAG) kangaroo logo into a new country of origin label, which, on July 1, 2018, became mandatory for most Australian food products sold in Australia. Businesses had two years (from July 1, 2016 to June 30, 2018) to comply with the new requirements. Any labels applied to food products after June 30, 2018 needed to comply with new country of origin labelling requirements.
You must label food and beverage products sold in Australia products in accordance with the Australian Government's country of origin food labelling legislation. You do not need to register or pay a fee for this. More information is available here.
It is important to note that the labelling requirements are not mandated for exported food products. You can still apply here to use the logo on food products exclusively for export.
