About FSSAI Registration
A clear overview, in simple terms — what it is, why it matters, and how we handle it.
Every food business needs FSSAI registration or a licence. From 1 April 2026, businesses with turnover up to ₹1.5 crore take basic registration (fee ₹100 a year), those between ₹1.5 crore and ₹50 crore need a state licence, and those above ₹50 crore — and all importers — a central licence. Applications are made on the FoSCoS portal.
Home kitchens, cloud kitchens, small restaurants, sweet shops, food traders and online food sellers all need it, and marketplaces won't list food without an FSSAI number.
We confirm the right category, file the application, and help with display and labelling rules.
