About FSSAI Modification (FoSCoS)
Businesses change over time. When your FSSAI certificate no longer matches your business, such as a new product line, a new partner or a change in capacity, you must update it on FoSCoS.
NewStarts identifies whether your change is a simple modification or needs an upgrade, files the modification application with the right fee and documents, and follows up until the revised certificate is issued.

FSSAI modification is the process of updating the details of an existing FSSAI registration or licence on FoSCoS, such as business name, address within the same premises, food categories, capacity or the people responsible, as permitted under the FSS licensing regulations.
