FSMA Non-Compliance: Consequences and Recovery for Nigerian Food Facilities

FSMA compliance is not a one-time event. Nigerian facilities that let their registration lapse or fail to meet FSMA requirements face serious consequences.

FDABridge Team•Jan 1, 2026•1 min read

FSMA requires every Nigerian food facility registered with the FDA to maintain continuous compliance. When a facility loses compliance, its ability to export to the US is affected. Import Alert 99-35 is the FDA's primary instrument for blocking shipments from facilities that present a safety risk.
