FSSAI Proposes New Export Certification Form To Vegan Foods
“Form I,” for vegan food compliance certificates provides a detailed template for certifying that exported vegan food products meet the requirements of the FSSAI’s vegan food regulations. The draft regulations will be considered after May 2, 2025.
Decrease in Application Fees for Vegan Logo Endorsement
As per this order, the application fees has been decreased from INR 25,000/- (inclusive of GST) per applied product, to INR 10000 per application. The new fees are applicable per application, irrespective of the number of products for which the endorsement is sought. This will reduce the financial restrictions on manufacturers of vegan food products and encourage a greater amount of FBOs to obtain Vegan Logo Endorsements.
FSSAI issues SOP for obtaining endorsement of Vegan Logo
Once approval in Form B is granted as per the guidelines, Food Business Operators (FBOs) shall apply for endorsement of Vegan Logo to the concerned Licensing Authority on the FoSCos portal.
