By means of Joint Resolution 16/2025, the Secretariat of Health Management and Secretariat of Agriculture, Livestock Farming and Fishing repealed Article 1396 of the Argentine Food Code.

The Ministry of Health of Rio Negro requested the repeal of Article 1396 of the Argentine Food Code (CAA), since it is in conflict with the STANDARDS FOR FOOD LABELING AND ADVERTISING, Joint Resolution SPRyRS No. 149/2005 and SAGPyA No. 683/2005, which incorporates Resolution Grupo Mercado Común (GMC) No. 26/03 “Mercosur Technical Regulations for Labeling of Packaged Foods” and renders the aforementioned article null and void.
