Best Before Date – 'Best before date is used as an indicator of when the product will begin to degrade from optimal quality; this includes when the food becomes stale, begins to taste 'off' or decays, rots or goes mouldy.

I need the exact phrase used in accordance with the Albanian food labeling regulations.

Thank you for your answer. Are you sure that "konsumohet" is the right word? and "ambalazh"? The translation that I have for the "Use by" variant is "Përdorimi deri në datën e printuar mbi paketim"

2. Data do të shoqërohet me fjalët:
- “preferohet të përdoret përpara …” kur data përfshin deklarimin e ditës,
- “preferohet të përdoret përpara fundit …” në rastet e tjera.

Preferohet të përdoret përpara datës së shtypur në (ambalazh).
ambalazh = packing
in reference to the food labeling law: write the exact location of the date (Many foods have a: Best before date printed on the label.) go to - http://faolex.fao.org/ Look for: preferohet te (include full texts)

In fact, it is the same document I sent you (in case you think to use:
Best before date printed on the label.)
Preferohet të përdoret përpara datës së shtypur në etiketë.

yes I know but you must write the exact location of the date - on the package - where? - see bottom - on the bottom of the can - on top of end panel etc.

Thank you! That is probably what I need (unless if there is a newer regulation - I can not open the reference link). Could you please post the complete answer? (I need the exact phrase to be placed on the product)
Thanks again. I think I've found the legislation - http://www.bashkialushnje.gov.al/bk/images/stories/2/ligjet/31.pdf
It's not on "etiketë" but I appreciate the info!
Well, I did not want to abuse your kindness so I settled for the general translation. The locations the shelf life information will refer to will be: PET bottle cap and plastic lid, as well as the products' boxes. In any case, please post your answer so that I can close the question and give you the more than well deserved points :)
