In general, it is legally permissible to mention the name of your garden in Sri Lanka alongside Indian gardens on the tea export bag, as long as: 1. _True and accurate labeling_: The labeling is true and accurate, and does not mislead consumers. 2. _Compliance with Indian laws_: You comply with Indian laws and regulations regarding food labeling and export. 3. _Compliance with Arab nations' laws_: You also comply with the laws and regulations of the Arab nations you are exporting to. 4. _No deception_: The labeling does not deceive or mislead consumers into believing the tea is solely of Indian origin or from Indian gardens. 5. _Clear indication_: The labeling clearly indicates the tea is a blend of Indian and Sri Lankan origin. However, it's crucial to consult with: 1. _Legal experts_: Ensure compliance with all relevant laws and regulations. 2. _Tea industry associations_: Verify if there are any specific guidelines or standards for tea labeling. 3. _Export authorities_
