What is FSSAI registration?
Every food business operator in India — manufacturers, restaurants, cloud kitchens, traders, retailers and home-based sellers — needs an FSSAI registration or licence under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006.
Applications are filed on the FoSCoS portal. Basic registrations and state licences for businesses in Uttar Pradesh are processed by the Uttar Pradesh Food Safety department through its designated officers, while central licences are issued by FSSAI’s regional offices.
