No, a declaration of trans fat must always appear in the Nutrition Facts table, even if it can be expressed as “0”. If a food meets the conditions for a simplified declaration and when the simplified format is used, trans fat may appear within the statement “not a significant source of (naming the omitted nutrients)” [B.01.401(6)].
