FSVP IMPORTER – Facilitez vos transactions aux USA

Your American buyer refuses to act as the FSVP Importer for your transactions?

No problem, if your company qualifies, GROUPE TRANSIT can become your ‘FSVP IMPORTER’ for all your imports into the United States or for specific buyers.

Under the FSVP (Foreign Supplier Verification Program), the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires the identification of an ‘FSVP Importer’ resident on each of your import invoices to the United States.

Who is affected? Any company that imports food for humans or animals (except those regulated by the USDA) must have an FSVP IMPORTER located in the United States. Occasionally, the buyer agrees to take on this responsibility. However, large groups like Costco, Walmart, Publix, Meijer, and others, often refuse to assume this responsibility with foreign manufacturers.

What does the FSVP IMPORTER do? They are your American agent, your local representative with the FDA. For any questions regarding origin, composition, ingredients, process, or in the case of a recall, the FDA will request answers and proof from your FSVP Importer, who must provide them immediately. There’s no waiting for the factory in Canada, France, or elsewhere internationally. Answers are required right away.

How does it work? The regulatory team at GROUPE TRANSIT will guide you through each step, from obtaining your food safety certifications to delivering your representation certificate. You even have two options to choose from: Global Passport: GROUPE TRANSIT becomes your FSVP IMPORTER for all your imports to the USA (annual package) or ‘À la Carte’ Passport, for imports to specific targeted buyers.

Your team in the USA GROUPE TRANSIT can quickly unlock FSVP Importer representation on U.S. soil. Additionally, our multilingual regulatory advisors are available for your logistics team for anything related to the FDA, including label verification, approval requests, and registering your FDA Facility.
