FSSAI Basic Registration - All you need to know

For a small food business operator (FBO) such as a local bakery, street food vendor, small trader, or home-based kitchen, FSSAI Registration is the first step to legally operating your business. This basic registration is meant for businesses with an annual turnover below ₹12 lakh and ensures that you are recognized as a compliant food business under FSSAI norms.

Once registered, you receive a 14-digit FSSAI number, which allows you to display the FSSAI logo on your food packaging and bills. This not only builds customer trust but also assures them that your products meet the required food safety standards.

Who Needs to Apply for FSSAI Basic Registration?

Any food business operator having an annual turnover up to ₹12 lakh is eligible and required to apply for FSSAI Basic Registration to legally operate their food business under the food safety regulations in India.

Benefits of FSSAI Registration
