Compliance steps
  1. 1
    Obtain the FSSAI Import Licence (document code 911001) and upload it in e-Sanchit before filing the bill of entry. Also upload the specimen copy of label (document code 0110FS); the Proper Officer will verify both documents before granting out-of-charge.

  2. 2
    Route the consignment only through a designated food-import entry point in compliance with General Note 4(D) of Schedule I of the ITC (HS) 2022. Diversion to a non-designated port renders the consignment liable to detention.

  3. 3
    Ensure labelling conforms to the FSS (Labelling and Display) Regulations, 2020 before arrival. Permissible rectifications — including per-serve percentage contribution to recommended dietary allowance and expiry-date information provided by the manufacturer — must be carried out at a customs bonded warehouse by affixing a single non-detachable sticker, without altering the original label.

A word of counsel

The most common error on this tariff line is treating an otherwise current FSSAI Import Licence as sufficient without auditing the label against the FSS (Labelling and Display) Regulations, 2020 before vessel departure. Labelling deficiencies that fall outside the enumerated rectifiable categories cannot be remedied at the port and result in consignment re-export or confiscation; the rectifiable-sticker dispensation is available only for the specific fields listed in CBIC Instruction 10/2022-Customs, and only when the corrected information originates from the manufacturer.
