A food-label review works best when the reviewer receives the actual product information and artwork together. Reviewing a design without the final formula or intended claims can leave important questions unresolved.
Assemble the review pack
Provide the formulation version, ingredient specifications, nutrition information and proposed label artwork. Include the intended pack sizes, markets and sales channels. Identify any claims planned for the website or advertising as well as those printed on the pack.
Explain what is confirmed and what is still provisional. A reviewer should not have to guess whether an ingredient description or manufacturer detail is final.
Ask for a dated, traceable assessment
The report should identify the applicable requirements and amendments used, the artwork version reviewed and the information still needed. Request comments tied to specific parts of the artwork so the designer can implement them accurately.
FSSAI publishes its Labelling and Display compendium. The linked compilation is dated 2025; the reviewer must confirm later amendments, applicability and effective dates rather than assuming a saved PDF is the complete current position.
Control changes before printing
Have the revised artwork checked against the comments and approved product information. Record who signs off the final version. If the formula, claim, pack size or manufacturer changes, ask whether another review is required.
This is a project-preparation checklist, not a legal determination that a label is compliant. Engage a suitably qualified food regulatory specialist and agree on the scope of their review. A clear evidence trail is more useful than an unsupported “FSSAI approved” assurance.
