FSSAI Basic Registration under FSS Act 2006 for FBOs with turnover below ₹12 lakh — FoSCoS portal filing, food category mapping, label compliance, 1-5 year validity.
The Food Safety and Standards Act 2006 read with the FSS (Licensing & Registration of Food Businesses) Regulations 2011 unifies India's food law and brings every Food Business Operator (FBO) under the regulatory umbrella of the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI). By 2026, no person can manufacture, process, package, store, distribute, transport, sell, import, or serve food in India without an FSSAI Registration or Licence — issued, renewed, modified, and surrendered through the FoSCoS (Food Safety Compliance System) portal.
The regime is tiered by turnover and scale. FSSAI Basic Registration is the entry-level authorisation for petty FBOs whose annual turnover is below ₹12 lakh — small retailers, hawkers, itinerant vendors, temporary stall-holders, small dairies (up to 500 LPD milk handling), small slaughter units, small food units (production below 100 kg/litre per day excluding milk and meat). FSSAI State Licence covers turnover ₹12 lakh-₹20 crore. FSSAI Central Licence covers above ₹20 crore, importers, e-commerce food operators, multi-State businesses.
We obtain FSSAI Basic Registration end-to-end — eligibility check, FBO category mapping, FoSCoS portal filing, food category configuration, label compliance, and renewal management.

Basic Registration is issued for 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 years (selectable at the time of application — fee scales with duration). Renewal must be filed before expiry on the FoSCoS portal; lapse triggers re-registration with a fresh fee. Most small operators choose 5-year registration for cost efficiency.
