The FDA's final rule on Requirements for Additional Traceability Records for Certain Foods (Food Traceability Final Rule) sets new recordkeeping requirements for those who manufacture, process, pack, or hold foods listed on the Food Traceability List (FTL). This rule is a vital part of the FDA’s New Era of Smarter Food Safety Blueprint and enforces Section 204(d) of the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). It aims to speed up the identification and removal of potentially contaminated foods, reducing foodborne illnesses and deaths.
