Silica Bag in Product Box
Hello. Is it fine to use silica bag (marked with DO NOT EAT, THROW AWAY) in a product box? Do I need any further marking on my product box? I only put it inside to avoid damages to electrical products due to moisture etc.

If the packet uses a specialized moisture-reactive indicator dye (such as toxic cobalt chloride), stricter regulatory chemical labeling applies, otherwise that's it

I am not 100% sure, but it should not be a problem. Silica is a chocking hazard for children. But it is not toxic. It is basically a kind of dry sand that absorb moisture. That is why it can be used in human consumption product bottles like vitamins.
food grade Silica (silicon dioxide) is used as a drying and flow aid in food powder items that tend to clump up and are perfectly safe.
(Of course silica bags in food bottles have to meet higher standards just like the bottles themselves has to.)
