In India, the food business is taking on new directions with increased international trade. Statistics show a rapid increment in the import and export of food products. However, entering the Indian market is not so simple. FSSAI Importer License is one of the major requirements for importing any food products or ingredients into India. It helps in the entry of only safe and quality products.
FSSAI Importer license can be applied for a period ranging from one to five years. Afterward, an application form can be filed to renew the FSSAI Importer license. Importers must submit the annual report submission for their FSSAI importer license to the FSSAI central authority.
NOC is important for importation as you cannot get a license or import food without a NOC. You need the following documents to apply for a NOC:
Bill of Entry
End-use Declaration- A declaration regarding food as not being GM food.
Country of origin certificate.
Import-Export Code (IEC) issued by the DGFT
FSSAI food business license.
The queries have to be clarified that are raised by the authorized officer. The inspection team will accompany the tasting of the food samples.
NOC will be granted to those who have met the requirements. Afterward, obtaining a license for importing food into the country is possible.
