FSANZ and TGA compliance for food, beverage and supplement brands in Australia

Australia splits products across two regulatory worlds: FSANZ for food and beverages, TGA for products that make therapeutic claims. A packaged food, a functional drink, and a supplement each follow different rules, and getting the classification wrong means the wrong pathway, the wrong permitted claims, and a launch that stalls for months. Taama gives you the right answer before you commit.

The regulatory landscape

FSANZ

Food Standards Australia New Zealand

Governs food and beverages: the Nutrition Information Panel format, ingredient and additive permissibility, allergen declarations, country of origin, date marking, and nutrition and health claims.

TGA

Therapeutic Goods Administration

Governs products making therapeutic claims under AUST L, AUST L(A), and AUST R. Controls permitted ingredients, indications, evidence requirements, and mandatory label statements for supplements and functional products.

Retailers

Woolworths · Coles · Chemist Warehouse

Major AU grocery and pharmacy retailers run their own supplier compliance requirements on top of the regulations: documentation checklists, barcode standards, and shelf-ready packaging specs.

What Taama covers for Australia

The checks that matter most for this market.

✓

Ingredient & additive permissibility

Checks every ingredient and additive against FSANZ food standards and, for therapeutic products, the TGA permitted ingredients list, flagging anything that would block listing or registration before you go further.

✓

Regulatory classification and GTM pathway

A definitive verdict on whether your product is a food or beverage under FSANZ or a therapeutic good under the TGA (AUST L, L(A), or R). Not a list of options. A decision.

✓

Nutrition, content & health claims validation

Validates on-pack claims against FSANZ's nutrition and health claims standard for food and beverages, and the TGA's Permissible Indications Determination for therapeutic products.

✓

Label and packaging compliance

Checks all mandatory elements for the right pathway: FSANZ NIP format, allergen declarations, country of origin and date marking for food and drink; TGA mandatory statements and NRVs for supplements.

✓

Registration dossier completeness

For products going through AUST L(A) or AUST R, checks your dossier for completeness before submission: missing evidence, test reports, or documentation that would cause rejection.

✓

Document validity

Checks that certificates of analysis, GMP certificates, and other supporting documents are current and haven't expired before you submit.
