This comprehensive list includes pertinent details such as the accreditation status by the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL) and contact information for each laboratory.
FSSAI has officially endorsed specific laboratories for the analysis of food samples, highlighting their NABL accreditation status, which serves as a crucial quality assurance measure for testing and calibration facilities.
The list specifies a total of 217 FSSAI Notified NABL Accredited Food Testing Laboratories. Additionally the list also specified, 22 FSSAI notified laboratories whose NABL accreditation validity has expired or are under suspension or under process of denotification or have shifted premise without Integrated assessment.
It’s important to note that the acknowledgment and validity of these laboratories are contingent upon FSSAI’s guidelines and directives, which are subject to periodic updates.
