Get Started

We prepare your paperwork, check it against Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), Central Licensing Authority's current requirements, file the application on your behalf and follow up on any query the department raises — end to end, so you're not learning the portal yourself.

Typically 30–45 working days. That's the working time on our side and the authority's normal processing window — it can run longer if the authority raises a query or your documents need correction, which we'll flag as soon as it happens.

FSSAI's Central Licence government fee (currently ₹7,500 per year, set by FSSAI) is separate and paid at actuals.

No. We are an assisted-filing agency — we prepare and submit your application to Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), Central Licensing Authority on your behalf. We are not Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), Central Licensing Authority and cannot waive its fees, rules or processing time.

That's covered in our service — we draft and file the response and keep you updated. It doesn't reset our fee; it's part of getting the filing through.

Use the "Proceed to payment" button on this page. Once payment is confirmed we email you a document checklist and a single point of contact for the filing.
