2024 FOOD FACILITY BIENNIAL REGISTRATION RENEWAL  

Renewal Period: October 1, 2024, 12:01AM through December 31, 2024, 11:59 PM



Section 415 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) [21 U.S.C. §
350d] requires food facilities that are required to register with FDA to renew
such registrations during the period beginning on October 1 and ending on
December 31 of each even-numbered year.

Please be advised that “updating” your registration is a different function than
“renewing” your registration. During the renewal period, you will not see the
“Update” button listed on the FFRM main menu, until the registration is renewed.
If a registration is not renewed by 11:59 PM on December 31 of the even-numbered
year, the registration is considered expired and will be removed from your
account. 

In addition, all facilities must include a unique facility identifier (UFI)
recognized as acceptable to FDA with the registration submission "To" date, FDA
recognizes the Data Universal Numbering System D-U-N-S (DUNS) number as an
acceptable UFI. The DUNS number is assigned and managed by Dun & Bradstreet.
DUNS numbers can be obtained or verified visiting D&B’s websiteExternal Link
