Starting a South African consumer-information and labeling compliance check before reading the textile-specific Regulation 6 route
What the source establishes
The South African Government page identifies Consumer Protection Act 68 of 2008, states its consumer-information and marketplace purposes, links the official PDF, and points to the amended consolidated Act at SAFLII. It provides a current legal starting point for the consumer-information framework that the textile-specific Regulation 6 record applies to CTFL goods.
The linked responsible-body page states the jurisdiction and requirements summarized in this record.
What this record does not prove
This landing page is not a textile labeling checklist, current SABS standard, tariff decision, label approval, or legal advice. Read the applicable Regulation 6 and current standards separately, check amendments and product scope, and obtain qualified South African compliance advice before release.
A reachable official source can verify identity, stated scope, and access. It cannot silently become an audit of workmanship, delivery, labor conditions, or suitability for your project.
