The government has approved various amendments in food safety and standard regulations, under which only one certification from food regulator FSSAI will be required for food products.
Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) will issue a draft notification in this regard and will seek stakeholders’ comments before finalising the amendments.
For food products, certifications from the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and AGMARK will not be needed if these amendments are finalised.
