The Food Safety and Quality Division (FSQD), MOH has posted on its website on July 1, 2016 the new fee structure for its services, including HACCP and GMP certifications,issuance of health and free sales certificates, etc. The new fees were to have taken effect from August 15, 2016. However, the implementation date had been extended to September 1, 2016 following appeals by the FMM and industry, which were very concerned with the drastic hike in fees (more than 200% for some services). FMM wrote to the FSQD to object and requested to defer implementation to end 2016. After two meetings on August 4 & 9, 2016, MOH agreed to revise the fees as follows:-

Kindly refer to the FSQD, MOH website (http://fsq.moh.gov.my/v5/ms/kadar-baru-fi-perkhidmatan-keselamatan-dan-kualiti-makanan-berkuatkuasa-1-september-2016/) for the full list of services and its revised fees. The implementation date has been deferred to September 1, 2016.
FMM has also highlighted our concerns to PEMUDAH and MITI. In the meantime, to assess the impact on the cost of doing business, we would greatly appreciate if members affected by the new fees could complete and return the attached questionnaire via email to aini@fmm.org.my / fax no:603-6277 6714, by August 29, 2016.
Your participation in this survey is very important as the collective outcomes, in particular the impact of the fee hike would be highlighted to MOH to support FMM’s call to defer implementation further until the end of 2016; as well as assist in PEMUDAH meetings to shorten the time frame for obtaining certification.
Please contact: Cik Nor Aini Abdullah, Industry Groups Management Division, FMM at Tel: 03-62867200, Fax: 03-62776714, e-mail: aini@fmm.org.my if you have any queries.
