Applications

Anyone may apply to change the Food Standards Code whether they are an individual, organisation or company. Applications currently being considered are listed below. Completed applications (including those that have been approved, withdrawn or rejected) are listed separately.   

Check the status of an application by viewing the FSANZ Work Plan which is updated regularly to reflect timing and any upcoming consultation opportunities.

All applications and submissions are published online, where possible. Supporting documents for applications will be released with the first assessment report. Large documents may be unavailable due to file size restrictions. In these cases, contact standards.management@foodstandards.gov.au to organise a CD to be sent to you. Visit our Information Publication Scheme page for more information.

Applications published on our website may contain material owned by a third party. If you wish to re-use third party material, you may need to seek permission from the copyright owner.
