Quick answer: If your facility in India is registered with the U.S. FDA and ships food to the United States, renew the registration between October 1 and December 31, 2026. You need a valid DUNS number and a U.S. Agent. FDA charges nothing; Orionex renews it with U.S. Agent service for $300 (1 year) or $450 (2 years).

Who in India Needs to Renew

Every FDA-registered facility in India that manufactures, processes, packs or holds food for the U.S. market, including:

ℹ️

FSSAI, APEDA, Spices Board and EIC are not FDA. These Indian registrations do not replace U.S. FDA food facility registration, which has to be renewed separately with FDA.

Common Problems for Indian Facilities

DUNS Name or Address Mismatch

The company name and address in your DUNS record must match the FDA registration exactly. Differences in spelling, plot numbers or district names are the most common cause of delays.

The Old U.S. Agent Has Disappeared

Many registrations were set up through a freight forwarder or consultant who no longer responds. FDA verifies the U.S. Agent, so an unreachable agent can block your renewal. We can take over as your U.S. Agent.

Lost FDA Account Login

The person who created the FDA account may have left. We help you recover access so the renewal can be completed in time.

Old Product Categories or Contacts

Products, owner details and the 24-hour emergency contact must be correct at renewal. We review them with you before submitting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do Indian food exporters need to renew FDA registration in 2026?

Yes. Every food facility in India that is registered with FDA and makes, processes, packs or holds food for the U.S. must renew between October 1 and December 31, 2026. Registrations not renewed are considered expired.

Does my FSSAI licence or APEDA registration replace FDA registration?

No. FSSAI, APEDA, Spices Board, EIC and other Indian registrations are Indian requirements. U.S. FDA food facility registration is separate and must be renewed with FDA.

Does an Indian facility need a U.S. Agent?

Yes. Every foreign food facility, including facilities in India, must name a U.S. Agent located in the United States. Orionex Trading LLC in Casper, Wyoming acts as U.S. Agent for our clients.

What is the cost to renew FDA registration from India?

FDA charges no fee. Orionex charges $300 for renewal with one year of U.S. Agent service, or $450 for two years ($225 per year). Payment is by card or PayPal.

What if our DUNS number details do not match?

This is one of the most common problems for Indian facilities. The company name and address in the DUNS record must match the FDA registration. We check this before submitting and help you correct it with Dun & Bradstreet.

We lost the login for our FDA account. Can we still renew?

Usually yes. We help you recover access to the FDA account or, if needed, move the registration so it can be renewed before December 31.
