EAS Seminar: Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP)

FDA’s Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) under the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) regulation places heightened levels of responsibility for ensuring safety on the FSVP importer and the foreign suppliers. But, failure to have an FSVP program was one of FDA’s highest FSMA citations in FY 2020.
