India: FSSAI Extends Compliance Deadline for Feed Standards for Select Stakeholders
On July 14, 2021, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) extended the compliance timeline for guidelines issued for commercial feeds/feed materials (i.e., compounded cattle feed) intended for meat and milk producing animals. The extension applies to a relatively limited pool of industry stakeholders, who encountered difficulties in obtaining Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) certification/licensing during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic second wave. The new compliance date, for this group, is set for January 1, 2022.
