CONFORMITY WITH ORGANIC PRODUCTION PRACTICES

Organic Certification

Conformity with organic production practices. Typically about 5 working days after complete documents, payment and review.

To sell food labelled organic in India, certification under NPOP (APEDA-accredited bodies) or PGS-India is required under FSSAI rules. This certificate does not replace it.

What is Organic?

Organic certification confirms that crops and products are grown and handled without prohibited synthetic pesticides, herbicides and fertilisers, and that organic and conventional goods are kept separate. It covers farms, processors and traders.

Who needs it?

  • Farms and farmer groups
  • Processors of organic food and spices
  • Traders and packers of organic products
  • Makers of organic personal care products

FROM APPLICATION TO DECISION

How it works

01

Define scope and buyer needs

Identify activities, sites, the standard and edition, and any buyer or tender accreditation requirement.

02

Confirm the certification route

Check the issuing body, accreditation scope, assessment arrangements and total fees in writing before payment.

03

Prepare documents and evidence

Submit initial business documents and the records needed to demonstrate how your management system operates.

04

Complete review and assessment

The applicable review or audit may require additional evidence and corrective action. Timing depends on scope and readiness.

05

Decision and ongoing review

Issuance depends on successful review, not payment alone. Check the issued scope and arrange applicable surveillance and renewal.

STARTING YOUR APPLICATION

Initial business documents

These establish who is applying and the proposed business scope. They are the starting point; the service-specific review or assessment can require additional operational evidence.

01

Business registration

Udyam, incorporation certificate or shop licence.

02

Letterhead or visiting card

Your business name and contact details.

03

One business invoice

A recent sales or purchase invoice.

04

Your business scope

What you do, in one or two clear lines.

Prepare for Organic

Use these conformity with organic production practices checks to organise your preparation. For each item, identify the responsible person, the procedure used and a recent record showing what happens in practice.

  • No prohibited synthetic inputs on the land or crop
  • Records of seeds, inputs and field activities
  • Separation of organic and conventional goods
  • Traceability from farm to packed product
  • Control of storage, transport and labelling

Make your evidence match your scope

  • Describe the actual activities and locations to be reviewed, including outsourced work and responsibilities retained by your business.
  • Choose current examples from your own operation. Record the date, responsible person and outcome so the reviewer can connect the evidence to your stated scope.
  • Identify missing records or unfinished actions before assessment. A policy or blank template alone does not show how a process operates.
  • Ask which records apply to your selected service and scope. This preparation checklist is not an exhaustive assessment or a promise of certification.

To sell food labelled organic in India, certification under NPOP (APEDA-accredited bodies) or PGS-India is required under FSSAI rules. This certificate does not replace it.
