There is a requirement of Food Safety and Standard Act that every FBO manufacturing/repacking/relabeling the food products, get their products analyzed from FSSAI and NABL approved lab at an interval of every six months to check the compliance of standard of particular products defined by Authority. Further also at the time of new license application, modification of FBO license, test report of water is required from the said lab if the water is used as an ingredient. So, considering the challenged faced by FBO regarding the accreditation and validity of lab and its authenticity, FSSAI publishes a list of labs including its scope of services offered along with the contact details and validity of accreditation.
This list also contains details about the labs which have lost their accreditation or the same has been expired.
FSSAI keeps on issuing this list to help out FBOs in need of food testing compliance.
