Overview

What Is FSSAI Registration?

FSSAI registration is a mandatory certification issued by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (under the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare) for every Food Business Operator — from home kitchens to large manufacturers. It confirms your business meets food safety and hygiene standards and allows legal manufacture, storage, distribution or sale of food.

!

Operating without a valid FSSAI license is a punishable offence

Under Section 63 of the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006, running a food business without FSSAI registration can attract a penalty of up to ₹5,00,000 and imprisonment of up to 6 months. Marketplaces like Swiggy, Zomato and Amazon also require a valid FSSAI number before onboarding.
