The mission of the Belgian Food Safety Agency is to preserve the safety of the food chain and the quality of our food in order to protect the health of humans, animals and plants.

The BFSA integrates all control services that are competent for the entire food chain. The BFSA is not only competent for controlling food, feed, fertilisers and phytopharmaceuticals, but is also responsible for sanitary (animal diseases) and phytosanitary (plant sector) prevention and control measures. Laying down operational rules on controls, certification, infrastructure standards to be complied with by food chain FFBO’s are also a part of its mission. The BFSA is also in charge of communication regarding all issues concerning the BFSA, in particular of informing consumers.
