How to Check FSSAI License Number and Status Online

Verify any FSSAI license number instantly. Learn how to use the 'FSSAI Verify' tool to check the validity and authenticity of food products and outlets.

Verification Power: Checking FSSAI License Authenticity

Transparency is a core value of the FSSAI. Whether you are a consumer checking a product or a business owner verifying a supplier, anyone can check the status of a 14-digit FSSAI number online.

1. Using the FoSCoS 'Verify FBO' Tool

Visit the official FoSCoS website and use the 'Verify FSSAI Number' search bar. Enter the 14-digit number found on the packet or license. If the number is valid, it will show the business name, address, and the validity date.

2. What to look for in the results?

Active Status: Ensure the license is 'Active' and not 'Expired' or 'Suspended'.
Kind of Business: Check if the business is authorized for what they are doing (e.g., if they are selling meat, they should have the meat category).
Address Match: The address on the license should match the physical location of the unit.

3. Why Verification Matters

For businesses, verifying a supplier's FSSAI number is a mandatory part of 'Vendor Management'. For consumers, it is the only way to ensure that the food they are eating is monitored by the Indian safety authorities.

Stay informed. Pragati Services provides authentication services for businesses to ensure their entire supply chain is 100% FSSAI-compliant.
