Summary:
The FDA has extended the compliance deadline for the FSMA 204 food traceability rule by 30 months, moving it from January 2026 to July 2028 to give the food industry more time to build interoperable supply-chain systems. However, the rule’s core requirements remain unchanged: companies handling certain high-risk foods must capture detailed critical tracking data at key points in the supply chain and be able to provide this information quickly (often within 24 hours). The extension is meant to encourage modernization and readiness, not delay efforts, and companies are being urged to map tracking events, close data gaps, align with suppliers, and invest in digital infrastructure to meet the rule’s demands.
