The present invention is a label system and method for label alignment and placement on a container. The label system includes a first label (20) or a container (10) whereby the first label includes alignment symbology (30) and a second label (40) having an alignment area (50) corresponding to the alignment symbology of the first label. The second label is positioned on the container whereby the alignment area of the second label is aligned with the alignment symbology of the first label. Visibility enhancement indicia (53) may be provided adjacent the alignment area to increase the visibility of the alignment area to the user. Demarcation indicia (55) are used to align the container in a holder for bar code scanning.
