FDA releases updated sections to the "Fish and Fishery Products Hazards and Controls Guidance, June 2022 Edition"

June 2022

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing the availability of specific chapters, appendices and addenda of the "Fish and Fishery Products Hazards and Controls Guidance, June 2022 Edition."

The FDA has determined specific chapters, appendices, and addenda of the guidance would be updated with the availability of new science. This update includes:

  • Table of Contents
  • Chapter 9: Environmental Chemical Contaminants Including Pesticides

The modifications can be reviewed through the "Guidance to Industry: Fish and Fishery Products Hazards and Controls Guidance June 2022 Edition" section of the guidance document. The updated guidance supports and complements the FDA's regulations for the safe and sanitary processing and importing of the fish and fishery products using hazard analysis and critical control point methods. Updates may be accessed through the FDA's Seafood website at www.fda.gov/seafood or the Fish and Fishery Products Hazards and Controls Guidance Page at Fish and Fishery Products Hazards and Controls

This guidance represents the Agency's current thinking on fish and fishery hazards and controls. It does not create or confer any rights for or on any person and does not operate to bind the FDA or the public. An alternate approach may be used if such approach satisfies the requirements of the applicable statutes and regulations.
