Each year, the FDA makes adjustments to its inspection processes and policies. This year is no exception.

In addition to a host of technical and procedural updates, the FDA has made the following important changes:

  • The “In-Plant Photographs” section has been revised to address how investigators will respond when a firm refuses photography during an inspection.
  • Environmental sampling policies have been simplified and revised.
  • New Re-Inspection User Fee procedures have been incorporated, as mandated under the Food Safety Modernization Act.
  • Tobacco product guidance has been included throughout.
  • Contact information and FDA directories are updated.
  • And more…

An inspection doesn’t have to be full of surprises … as long as you know the rules that inspectors will be operating under before they walk in the door.

Now you can have the same inspection manual
for 2012 that the FDA inspectors use.
