Why Export Certifications & Approvals Matter
Certificates of Origin and regulatory approvals validate product authenticity and quality for importers.
Proper approvals prevent holds at ports and demurrage charges.
Adherence to FSSAI, Plant Quarantine, APEDA, and FDA prevents rejections, recalls, and penalties.
Certifications like organic, Halal, and FSIS open new markets and premium pricing opportunities.
Accurate documentation reduces audit findings and legal liabilities.
