FAQs

FSSAI licence & food certification questions

What is the difference between FSSAI registration, State licence and Central licence?
The category depends mainly on annual turnover. From 1 April 2026, food businesses with turnover up to ₹1.5 crore need FSSAI Basic Registration, those between ₹1.5 crore and ₹50 crore need a State Licence, and those above ₹50 crore need a Central Licence. Importers, exporters and some other business types need a Central Licence regardless of turnover.
Do FSSAI licences still need to be renewed?
Licences and registrations issued on or after 1 April 2026 remain valid until they are suspended, cancelled or surrendered, so periodic renewal is no longer required. The annual fee must still be paid and all food safety obligations must still be met.
Why should I hire an FSSAI license consultant?
An experienced FSSAI license consultant identifies the correct category, prepares complete documents and handles queries on FoSCoS, which avoids rejections and delays. We also help with the certifications and compliance your business needs after the licence is issued.
Which food products need BIS certification?
Under FSSAI's regulations, BIS certification is mandatory for certain products, including packaged drinking water, packaged mineral water, infant foods and some milk powders and condensed milk. Most other food products do not need BIS certification.
What is MPCB consent and does my food plant need it?
Food processing units in Maharashtra generally need Consent to Establish before construction and Consent to Operate before production from the Maharashtra Pollution Control Board. The requirements depend on your plant's category and pollution potential, which we assess for you.
What is the difference between ISO 22000 and HACCP certification?
HACCP focuses on identifying and controlling food safety hazards at critical control points in your process. ISO 22000 is a complete food safety management system that includes HACCP principles along with management, documentation and continual improvement requirements.
How do I get organic certification for my food products?
Organic certification in India is granted under NPOP, mainly for export and domestic markets, through accredited certification bodies, or under PGS-India for domestic markets. We help you meet the standards and prepare for certification.
What food safety and compliance training do you offer?
We offer regulatory compliance training covering food safety, hygiene, labelling, waste management and environmental rules, food safety training for production and quality teams, and food entrepreneur training for first-time food business owners.
