Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI)
The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has been established under Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006 (FSS Act) which consolidates various acts & orders that have hitherto handled food related issues in various Ministries and Departments
It is responsible for
Laying down science based standards for articles of food
Regulating the manufacture, storage, distribution, sale and import of food to ensure availability of safe and wholesome food for human consumption
Introduction of the FSS Act repealed a number of individual regulatory acts such as Edible Oils Packaging Order and Milk and Milk Products Order
The Act aims to establish a single reference point for all matters relating to food safety and standards
FSSAI also collects and collates data regarding food consumption, incidence and prevalence of biological risk, contaminants in food, residues of various, contaminants in foods products, identification of emerging risks and introduction of rapid alert system
Impact of Changes in Labelling Laws
Over 200 MT of imported gourmet chocolates from around the world, including brands such as Godiva, Guylian, Lindt and Mars, are stuck at various Indian ports due to non-compliance with new Indian labelling laws
Several other food categories such as French artisinal cheese, American crisps, Thai condiments, and Italian pasta sauces have also been held up for non-compliance
FSSAI is especially wary of labelling violations on chocolate products as tests reveal that many of them contain very high level of vegetable fat, which is not permissible under the Indian law
Small-scale importers who primarily depend on a single food category have been badly affected with many of them already closing the business
Indian packaging and labelling regulations have been in place since 2011 and ample grace period was given to importers to align themselves with new regulations
Since November 2013, FSSAI has stopped allowing imported products that do not comply with the new laws
