India: India's FSSAI Proposes New Regulations for Vegan Foods

On September 8, 2021, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare/Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) published draft regulations for packaged vegan food products. The regulation, once implemented, will require food products marketed as vegan to display a vegan logo on the label to assist consumers with vegan product identification. World Trade Organization (WTO) members are invited to comment on the proposed draft amendment and the timeline to provide comments is 60 days from the date of notification on the WTO website.
