If you produce products in the categories below, FDA registration may be mandatory :
- Medical devices
- Drug products (including OTC)
- Tobacco products
- Radiation-emitting devices (RED)
- Biologics
Each product category has specific exemptions and Registrar Corp can help you determine whether you must register your facility.
By registering your facility with FDA, you help promote consumer safety and keep your company FDA compliant. FDA registration involves submitting detailed information about your products, manufacturing facilities and processes, quality control, labeling, recall procedures, and more.
FDA compliance can seem time consuming and complex, but it doesn’t have to be. More than 30,000 food and beverage, dietary supplement, drug, medical device, and cosmetics companies trust Registrar Corp to help them comply with FDA registration regulations with ease.
Dietary Supplement Facility Registration
Dietary supplements fall under FDA jurisdiction as part of the food and beverage industry. This means if you’re a dietary supplement manufacturer, processor, packager, or warehouse facility trying to enter the U.S. market, you need to register your facility with FDA.
Like food and beverage facilities, dietary supplement manufacturers, processors, packagers, and warehouse facilities must register with FDA before shipping products to the U.S. and renew their FDA Registration every even-numbered year between October 1 and December 31.
Master Manufacturing Records
Companies that manufacture dietary supplements must write and implement Master Manufacturing Records (MMRs) for each unique formulation and batch size of dietary supplement. MMRs identify steps and stages in the manufacturing process for each supplement to ensure consistency in the components, quality, labeling, and packaging of the supplement across batches.

Certificate of Registration
Once a company is registered, FDA issues registration numbers but does not provide Certificates of Registration. Yet many buyers or importers still request registration confirmation from their suppliers.
If your facility has already registered with FDA, Registrar Corp can provide a third-party Certificate of Registration to serve as confirmation of your valid FDA registration to buyers, customs brokers, and suppliers. We currently offer third-party Certificates of Registration for companies in the food and beverage, drug, and cosmetics industries.
If your facility is not registered with FDA, consider working with Registrar Corp to register your facility and obtain a third-party Certificate of Registration.
Get Your CertificateVerify Your FDA Registration
FDA registration numbers can become invalid unexpectedly and cause delays or detentions at ports of entry. Reasons your FDA registration number may be invalidated include:
- Outdated ownership or other information
- Registration not submitted by authorized person
- Facility’s U.S. Agent refusing the designation
- Registration not renewed before renewal deadline
At Registrar Corp, we provide U.S. FDA registration verification at no additional cost. You can quickly and easily check whether your facility’s registration is valid and take corrective action to prevent potential fees or fines.
Verify Your RegistrationAffirmation of Compliance
When a product arrives at a U.S. port of entry, certain information must be provided and transmitted electronically to the United States Customs and Border Protection (CBP). If the product is or may be regulated by FDA, CBP sends the import entry information to the FDA for verification.
Appropriate Affirmation of Compliance (AofC) codes and qualifiers can expedite the admissibility process. While the use of these AofC codes is voluntary, it will help expedite the entry review process and increase the likelihood that the shipment may be processed based on import system screening.
