FDA requires a Food Canning Establishment (FCE) registration and process filings (SID) for certain low-acid canned (LACF) and acidified foods (AF) prior to entry to the United States.
It is not always easy to determine if your food and beverage products are required to file a FCE/SID submission or if they qualify for an exemption from FDA registration. Failure to register or meet the qualifications for exemption can result in costly FDA import detentions or refusal of entry into the United States. US Imports specialists can review your products to determine if your product is LACF or AF or excluded from submission.
If determined your products are excluded, US Imports can issue you a a third-party Exclusion Certificate to serve as confirmation to buyers, customs brokers and suppliers.
