FSSAI Registration

Mandatory Food Safety Compliance & FoSCoS Advisory Desk

Under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006, every Food Business Operator (FBO) in India involved in manufacturing, processing, packaging, storage, distribution, or sales must mandatorily obtain a 14-digit FSSAI Registration or License prior to commencing operations.

Our regulatory desk provides end-to-end management on the FoSCoS (Food Safety Compliance System) portal—handling eligibility categorization, unit layout verification, document compilation, query handling with Food Safety Officers (FSO), and annual return filings.
