Is it okay to write the place of origin as Shandong instead of Linyi?

No.

The origin of a product is not a product identification content that must be marked by law. The origin of a product is different from the name and address of the product's producer, and the two cannot be confused as one concept. In general, the place of origin of a product only indicates the actual place of production, processing or assembly of the product. The region marked is also the concept of administrative region, rather than a specific address. The name and address of the product manufacturer refers to the responsible person and his main place of residence. The main purpose of marking the address of the producer is to make it easy for users and consumers to check and pursue complaints when quality problems are discovered. thus. The "Product Quality Law" and the "Product Labeling Regulations" do not stipulate that the origin of products must be marked. In some specific circumstances, the place of origin of a product can become a must-label content. For example, Article 26 of the Trademark Law stipulates that when licensing a trademark, the licensee must indicate the place of origin of the product when using another person's trademark.

For products produced domestically and sold domestically, the place of origin of the product shall be the place of final production, processing or assembly of the product. Regardless of whether the products are processed by out-of-town outsourcers or by off-site branches or production bases of the group company. If the product is produced and then undergoes auxiliary processing such as sub-assembly, packaging, and inspection in another place, the origin of the product will not change and the origin of the product will still be determined based on the main place of production, processing, and assembly of the product. Therefore, it is not allowed to write Shandong as the place of origin but not Linyi.
