of <h1>New Guidelines for Importing Food: Testing Protocols and Compliance Under Customs Act and Food Safety Standards Act.</h1> The circular outlines procedures for the import of edible and food products, referencing the Customs Act, 1962, and the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006. It provides guidelines for sample testing when Port Health Officers are unavailable, specifying that samples should be tested at authorized laboratories. High-risk food items require testing before clearance, while perishable items may be cleared with general checks and certificates from recognized labs. Importers must declare packaging details and labeling in English. Products must have at least 60% of their original shelf life remaining at import. The Assistant/Deputy Commissioner is responsible for ensuring compliance with these regulations.
