FAMI-QS / European FEED ADDITIVES AND PREMIXTURES QUALITY SYSTEM

FAMI-QS Code of Practice is a public document and its content can be freely followed by any feed additive or premixture operator.

The text of the Code is designed to set out general requirements. Questionnaires are included in order to further detail the requirements. In addition it can be used as a tool for the operators and in auditing operators.

A compilation of Guidance is provided as annex to the Code. These are covering topics of special importance. While the requirements of the Code are mandatory for every operator, the Guidance papers provide information in a more detailed and practical way and if applicable may serve as additional assistance. If the operator decides to follow the procedures described in the Guidance, this will become a part of its Safety System. In case that, for good reasons, he uses different procedures, he must be able to provide evidence upon request that he is complying with the requirements of the Code as well.

Running side by side, a parallel and independent certification system that is described in the Process description document has been developed by FAMI-QS Asbl. Participation in the FAMI-QS auditable system is based on voluntary commitment.
