FDA Seeks Comments on Export Certificate Application Process

FDA seeks comments on its collections of information related to export certificate applications for FDA-regulated human food and cosmetic products, it said in a notice. Mostly requested electronically via the CFSAN Export Certification Application and Tracking System (CFSAN eCATS) or Certificate Application Process (CAP), the certificates may be required by foreign countries for goods exported from the U.S. to assure foreign regulators that the goods meet U.S. requirements. FDA seeks comments by May 17 on whether the information collections are necessary, how they can be improved, and how to minimize their burden.
