What is FSSAI Registration?
FSSAI Registration
Food Safety Compliance System (FoSCoS) is an enhanced version of Food Licensing and Registration System (FLRS) which was launched in 2012 for issuance of pan-India FSSAI Licenses and Registration. It had evolved incrementally and organically with changing regulatory needs. The technology on which it was built was outdated with technical support no longer available. Over years users complained of slow speed of FLRS and software experts resisted new changes on FLRS thus impeding any further improvement, expansion and innovation in the licensing system. Thus the migration from FLRS to FoSCoS was imperative. FoSCoS is built using latest technology with a vision to have modern on stop pan-India IT platform for food safety regulatory needs. FoSCoS is conceptualized as the umbrella system which is integrated with FSSAI’s other existing IT platforms.
