Overview - Health Certificate

The Government of India has introduced a scheme for the issuance of Health Certificates that attest to the quality of food commodities. Under this initiative, the Export Inspection Council of India (EIC) provides Health Certificates on a consignment basis. These certificates confirm that the food products are suitable for human consumption and comply with safety standards and necessary regulations for export. In this article, we will explore the Health Certificate for Export of Food Products in detail. For assistance with FSSAI Registration, reach out to IndiaFilings.

Importance of a Health Certificate

In line with the Export and Import Policy established by the Government of India, every export consignment must undergo mandatory microbiological and other tests conducted by a government laboratory. Additionally, it must be accompanied by a Health Certificate. Below, we elaborate on the significance of the Health Certificate in export and import transactions:

This certificate certifies that the relevant governmental authority of the exporting country has conducted an examination of this specific consignment of goods.

Furthermore, it affirms that the food items, whether of animal origin or non-animal origin, intended for export, are deemed fit for human consumption.

This health certificate serves as documentation that the food consignment complies with the applicable food legislation.

Additionally, it confirms that the food consignment has been produced by a legitimate manufacturing facility.

Basis for Issuance of Health Certificate

A Health Certificate will be issued for consignments that meet the following criteria:

  • Requirements of the importing country
  • Applicable national standards
  • Specifications set by the buyer

The health certificate is necessary for the following categories of trade businesses:

  1. Seafood processing organizations approved by the European Union, specifically for Marine Products (Fish and collagen) intended for export exclusively to the European Union.
  2. Seafood processing firms, both European Union and non-European Union approved, for Marine Products destined for export to the Russian Federation, P.R. China, Iran, and other non-EU countries.
  3. E.U.-approved processing firms for consignments of Animal Casings intended for export to the European Union.
  4. Exporters of peanut products to the EU and Malaysia.
  5. Exporters seeking certification for Non-Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO).
  6. Approved processors and exporters participating in the voluntary food certification scheme.

The FSSAI requires a Health Certificate for all imported food consignments.

The FSSAI has been actively working to uphold the quality of food produced or imported into India, embodying the motto “Ensuring quality standards of goods manufactured and imported into the country.” To further these goals, on August 3, 2022, the FSSAI released an order (F.No.1829/Health Certificate/FSSAI/Imports/2021) mandating the provision of a Health Certificate for imported food consignments. This certification serves to verify that the food is safe for consumption and free from harmful substances. Certain categories of food items will now be required to obtain this Health Certificate for importation:

  • Dairy and Dairy Products
  • Pork and Pork Items
  • Seafood and Seafood Products

Documents Required Health Certificate

  • Application for the Issuance of a Health Certificate
  • Copy of the Invoice
  • Copy of the Purchase Order
  • Letter of Credit
  • Bank Draft for the Required Fee
  • Test Report for Food Products Intended for Export, Issued by EIA or EIC-Approved Laboratories
