FSSAI State License

The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) is a government-backed regulatory body responsible for ensuring food safety and quality across India. Established under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006, FSSAI has laid down comprehensive guidelines that every food business must follow. Operating a food business without a valid FSSAI license is a punishable offence under the Act. The FSSAI State License is mandatory for medium-sized Food Business Operators (FBOs) with an annual turnover ranging from ₹12 lakh to ₹20 crore, including restaurants, manufacturers, cloud kitchens, and food processors. This license is issued by the respective State Authority and is essential for legal operations. At BizFormation India, we offer expert guidance and fully online support for State FSSAI License registration, ensuring a smooth, error-free, and timely approval process so your food business remains compliant and operational without delays.
