If a variety of different products are being sold in a gift box (a few different combos all with different weights) but all products are labeled with their net wt on the front and nutritional info on the back does the gift pack need a Net Wt. statement? The front of the box will have a see through area so you can easily see each item in the box and it's declared info. 

 

Thanks!

My understanding after reviewing a gift package company is that you need to show a statement on the outer packaging indicating that each item in the package has their own net weight on the corresponding label.

Interesting, I never paid attention to that.

As this is a hamper type package, in the UK you wouldn't need to declare the net weight of the package (unless it's very heavy in which case you might consider declaring the gross weight for health & safety reasons). I wouldn't have thought that you would need to in the US either and I can't find anything to indicate that you would do.
