Risk assessment

New feed materials

If you want to produce a new feed material, or bring an existing feed material into the GMP+ chain that is not yet on Product list, there are some steps to follow.

1. Check whether the product is a feed material by using the guidance tree. See the "GMP+ Guidance tree".
   
   
2. If the product is a feed material, check whether it is included in the Product List with a risk assessment. The risk assessments can be found on the portal.
   
   

If the product is not yet included in the Product List with a risk assessment, then you should submit an application via this form.

An application for inclusion can be made by current or prospective GMP+ certified companies, trade associations, or consultancy firms. 

The acceptance procedure is as follows:   

1. Submit a risk assessment via this form 
2. First screening by GMP+ International
3. Second screening by the Technical Committee for Feed Support Products
4. If approved, the feed material is included in the Product List and the Risk Assessment is published.

Please note: Submitting a complete risk assessment before the deadline is required. GMP+ International will review the application, and if needed, may ask for further details from the applicant. Only when the submitted risk assessment is complete and confirmed by GMP+ International can it be included on the agenda of the next meeting of external experts (TCFSP meeting).

The Technical Committee FSP (TCFSP) meets 3 times a year. During these meetings, members of the TCFSP will review the new risk assessments. The meeting dates and the relevant deadlines until when the companies can submit (new) risk assessments can be found in the table below:
