On February 14, 2017 U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) released Cargo Systems Messaging Service (CSMS) #17-000078 announcing that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has, in accordance with the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), invalidated food facility registrations that were not renewed during the 2016 registration cycle.

According to the notice, “Registrations that have been invalidated cannot be renewed and a new registration will have to be created.” The status of an individual registration may be viewed by logging into a FURLS Food Facility Registration Module account.
