Labeling and marking of textile products

Abstract

In order to improve the functioning of the internal market and provide accurate information to
consumers, it is very important that textile products are properly labeled and marked. The Rulebook on labeling and marking of textile products, which has been in force in the Republika Srpska since 1th February 2017,
prescribes the names of textile fibers, types of textile products, determination of raw material composition,
labeling, marking, additional labeling and marking of textile products (“Official Gazette of the Republika Srpska”, No. 36/16). The competent inspection body is authorized to take measures and actions in accordance
with the regulations governing inspection and adoption of technical regulations, when it determines that a
textile product placed on the market in the Republic of Srpska does not meet the requirements of this Rulebook.
