A file folder label for use on file folders having an exposed tiered edge is provided having a unitary label portion with at least one major and at least one minor tier section. The major tier section or sections and minor tier section or sections are provided to correspond with a major tier or tiers and a minor tier or tiers presented on the exposed edge of the file folder to which the tier file folder label is to be attached. The major and minor tier sections of the folder label are partially separable such that the major and minor tier sections can be partially separated and individually manipulated to conform to the corresponding tier on the file folder. Additionally, cut-out windows are provided on the folder label and help to partially separate major and minor tier sections. These windows also help in the alignment of the folder label when applying it to a file folder.
