FDA Nutrition Facts Label Generator (21 CFR 101.9 Revised 2026)

Q: Are Vitamin A and Vitamin C still mandatory on FDA Nutrition Facts labels?

No. Under the revised 21 CFR 101.9 rules, Vitamin A and Vitamin C are voluntary unless a nutrient content claim is made. Vitamin D and Potassium replaced them as mandatory micronutrients alongside Calcium and Iron.

Q: How does FDA 21 CFR 101.9 calculate % Daily Value (%DV)?

Under 21 CFR 101.9(d)(7)(ii), %DV is calculated by dividing either the declared (rounded) quantitative amount or the unrounded amount by the Daily Reference Value, multiplying by 100, and rounding to the nearest whole percent.
