The Government of India (GoI) has introduced the Food Safety & Standards (FSS) Act, 2006, with the motive to regulate & prevent the food industry. The FSS Act, 2006, consists of laws that direct the sale, manufacturing, storage, distribution & import of food items within the country. However, it would be good to make sure that all the proper criteria & compliances are duly fulfilled by the food business operator. The FBOs (Food Business Operators) must compulsorily obtain the FSSAI License. The FSSAI Registration Certificate ensures that the food consumed is safe & healthy for human consumption. After getting the FSSAI License, the Food Business Operators must comply with the FSSAI compliances and file the FSSAI Annual Return.
