FSSAI Registration – Apply for FSSAI Certificate Online
FSSAI Registration is a mandatory requirement for all food-related businesses in India to ensure the safety, hygiene, and quality of food served or sold to consumers. Whether you are a small vendor, a home-based kitchen, a cloud kitchen, or managing a large food chain, obtaining an FSSAI certificate is essential to operate legally and build customer trust.
The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, regulates this registration. It governs the manufacturing, processing, storage, distribution, and sale of food products across India to ensure food safety and prevent adulteration.
