FSSAI for Food Marketing Company

FSSAI is the abbreviated form of Food Safety and Standard Authority of India. It is an independent body operating under the Health Ministry of the country. An FSSAI registration is compulsory for every business entity or individual who wants to get an FSSAI license according to the food safety registration.

Every food business operator must retain the levels of its food quality to make sure of the safety and providing satisfactory results to every consumer. Hence, registration under FSSAI to get an FSSAI Food License has a vital role to formulate the required controlling procedures. 

An FBO has to follow a few of the important steps to complete the FSSAI registration process, which include-

If the inspector or the authorized food officer finds any mistake in your application, he/she will return your application with a valid reason and ask you for editing it. After that, you have to clarify as well as submit if you need any further documents. Once you submit the required documents and update your application, the food officer will approve your application.
