Food Certificate

A food certificate usually refers to a document or license issued by the Food Safety and Standards
Authority of India (FSSAI). This certification is mandatory for any business involved in the production,
processing, packaging, storage and distribution of food. It ensures that food products comply with safety
and quality standards laid down under the Food Safety Standards Act, 2006 and its rules. Food
certificates issued by FSSAI vary depending on the size and nature of the operation. These include:

– FSSAI Registration: In the case of small businesses with annual turnover less than the specified
limit.
– FSSAI License: Issued to medium to large scale businesses with annual turnover above the
specified limit.
The process of obtaining a food certificate involves submitting an application to FSSAI through
their online form or physically to the designated authority. The application contains information
about the business, foods produced or processed, infrastructure information, and other relevant
information. 

After verification and inspection, the FSSAI issues a valid certificate or permit,

which must be clearly displayed at the factory and used in all food-related transactions.

Obtaining a valid food certificate not only ensures compliance with regulatory requirements but
also assures the safety and quality of food offered for sale or distribution to consumers. In order
to maintain food safety standards and protect public health, it is important for companies to
maintain hygiene standards, follow good manufacturing practices (GMP) and regularly renew
their food certification.
