FDA requires a Food Canning Establishment (FCE) registration for certain low-acid canned (LACF) and acidified foods (AF) prior to entry to the United States. Food canning establishments must also file Scheduled Process Identification (SID) filings with FDA for each process used in the production of foods subject to these requirements. Modifications in the manufacturing process, container type, acidulators, or aseptic processing equipment requires submission of updated SID forms.
US Imports' specialists can assist with FCE registration and obtaining an SID number.
