/>i- On March 20, 2025, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced its intention to extend the compliance date for the Food Traceability Rule by 30 months. This extension aims to provide the food industry with additional time to fully implement the rule’s requirements.
- The Food Traceability Rule, established under the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FMSA), mandates enhanced traceability recordkeeping for entities that manufacture, process, pack, or hold foods listed on the Food Traceability List (FTL) for the purpose of promptly identifying and removing potentially contaminated food from the market.
- Notably, in its announcement, FDA made clear that the substance of the rule remains intact, and the only modification is extending the compliance deadline. The agency will continue to work with stakeholders to provide additional assistance and resources to address challenges with implementation.
