What is FSSAI Registration?
FSSAI registration is a regulatory approval intended for eligible food business operators under the Food Safety and Standards framework. It identifies the registered food business and supports regulatory oversight of food-safety activities.
Depending on the scale and nature of operations, a food business may require registration, a State Licence or a Central Licence. The appropriate category should be determined using the latest official eligibility criteria.
Eligibility, fees, documents and regulatory requirements may change. Applicants should verify the current criteria on the official FSSAI or FoSCoS portal before applying.
