Food for Human Consumption; Export Certificates; Food and Drug Administration Food Safety Modernization Act of 2011; Certification Fees

Zusammenfassung

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is announcing the fees we will assess for issuing export certificates for food for human consumption, with the exception of dietary supplements, medical foods, and foods for special dietary use. The FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) of 2011 authorizes us to charge fees to cover our costs associated with issuing export certificates for food. This notice provides the fee schedule for issuing these certificates and the basis for the fees. We have not previously exercised our FSMA authority to collect fees for export certificates issued for food for human consumption.
