Food Product Dossier Compilation

Overview

Food Product Dossier Compilation – Overview

Ensuring food product compliance is crucial in the food industry. One of the key steps in achieving compliance is the meticulous compilation of a Food Product Dossier. The process of dossier compilation involves gathering and organizing all the necessary documentation and data related to food and food supplement registration in any country. The food product dossier compilation thus needs focus as it includes food registration requirements, ingredient information, labeling requirements, and safety assessments.

Food and food supplement classification, product compliance, and registration requirements may vary from country to country. Few countries mandate food supplement registration or notification requirements, while others are merely compliance-based, without the need for registration. For food product registration-based countries, food products may be categorized as low-risk, medium-risk, and high-risk foods or borderline products (of the drug-food category). For those without any categorization also, registration is a must. Food registration terminology may vary for each country; a few countries call it a simple notification or approval as well.

A food product dossier contains all the technical data (administrative, manufacturing, quality, control, nonclinical, and clinical) of a product to be approved/registered/ marketed in a country. Any food supplement registration process requires a dossier, a technical file, or a set of technical documents, which for example, include a few or a combination of the following:

  • Food Product formula, composition, ingredients, and source data.
  • Product Label and artwork.
  • Claims and supporting data.
  • Batch formula.
  • Manufacturing process.
  • Food Product Specifications.
  • Standard testing methods/method of analysis.
  • Control procedure for active and inactive raw materials, including the certificate of analysis of active ingredient(s) with its specifications.
  • Control procedure for finished products.
  • Stability data and storage conditions.
  • Safety data.
  • Nutritional analysis.
  • Food supplement and nutritional fact panel.
  • Packaging material (food grade certificate).
  • Allergen, GMO type declarations.
