FSSAI Registartion
FSSAI is the organization that is responsible for the registering licenses of every food business operator (FBO) in India thereby regulating quality checks of food products and restricting the food adulteration and sale of substandard products. It lays down the rules and regulations for carrying food business in India and ensures the protection of public health. For those who are dealing with food-related businesses, they must have an FSSAI Registration certificate.
The FSSAI was established as an independent autonomous body, under the Ministry of Public Health, for the purpose of regulating the food licensing process in the country. The legal backing used by the Ministry of Public health is the ‘Food Safety & Standards Act, 2006’, a law passed to ensure the safety of food products, through the enforcement of necessary standards and regulations.
