233 Legal Reasons, why you can't export to USA?


233 Legal Reasons, Why you can't export to USA?

 

In India, now a days many traders are debating why India is bringing import related laws to check sub-standard food imports. It is surprising that educated people in food industry protest when India stops entry of substandard products into India. Unfortunately few ignorant people in press, government and politics support this unjust demand in the name of trade facilitation.  

Are we keen to make India dustbin of the world? Other countries will prefer India as dumping ground for their commercial benefits, but what about us - the citizens of India. Think about it.
Let me share what happens in other countries.
Let us understand, what happens in USA. The country which protests the most when it comes to Indian Food Laws. 
It is interesting to note that same companies are willing to follow all the rules in USA and EU, but when it comes to India, they seek concessions. Why? 
It seems for them USA and EU citizens are more important than citizens of India. 
It seems the amount we place in penalty clause decides the value of the life in the country. 
"When Indian laws and Government of India is under-valuing our own life, why others will give value to us."

INTRODUCTION TO FDA'S IMPORT REFUSAL REPORT (IRR)

The Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) authorizes FDA to detain a regulated product that appears to be out of compliance with the Act.  The FDA district office will then issue a "Notice of FDA Action" specifying the nature of the violation to the owner or consignee.  The owner or consignee is entitled to an informal hearing in order to provide testimony regarding the admissibility of the product. If the owner fails to submit evidence that the product is in compliance or fails to submit a plan to bring the product into compliance, FDA will issue another "Notice of FDA Action" refusing admission to the product. The product then has to be exported or destroyed within 90 days.

The IRR reports on those products for which a determination was to refuse admission to part or all of the product offered for importation.

The IRR is generated from data collected by FDA's Operational and Administrative System for Import Support (OASIS) and is updated monthly.  Each month, the IRR is available sorted by country/area and by product based on the industry code which is the first two characters of FDA's product code (e.g., all fishery/seafood products will be coded 16...).

FDA has prepared this information in an effort to provide the public with information on products that have been found to appear in violation of the Act.

THE IRR PROVIDES THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:

MANUFACTURER FEI  
An identifier assigned internally by FDA for each firm/location.
MANUFACTURER NAME  
Identifies the name of the establishment declared. It must match with approved list in the database, else product will be refused.
MANUFACTURER
ADDRESS/CITY/
PROVINCE-STATE/COUNTRY  
Identifies the manufacturer's street address, city, province or state, and country/area.
PRODUCT CODE  
A unique identifier assigned to products regulated by FDA.
FDA PRODUCT DESCRIPTION  
The FDA's description of the product offered for entry.
REFUSAL DATE  
Identifies the date when the action was taken.
FDA DISTRICT  
Identifies FDA District Offices that have jurisdiction over the refused product.
ENTRY NO.  
A unique identifier assigned to each entry.
DOCUMENT/LINE/SUFFIX  
A unique identifier for the product within an entry. An entry may have one or more of these number/letter identifiers.
FDA SAMPLE ANALYSIS  
Yes or No flag indicating whether or not a FDA sample analysis was conducted.
FDA RECORD OF PRIVATE
LAB SAMPLE ANALYSIS  
Yes or No flag indicating whether or not FDA records show receipt of private laboratory analysis results package.
CHARGES  
Identifies the reason for the agency actions. The specific reason for the refusal can be accessed by clicking the reason given in the IRR or by searching under the file titled "Violation Code Translations".
Partial Refusal  
If this is present on a listing, it means that there was a reconditioning action which resulted in a portion of the shipment being refused.

 Why India Food Laws do not have this provision? Are we keen to hide the culprits.
