Product Registration

A Certificate of Registration is distinct and separate from a Permit to Operate. All facilities that fall under the auspices of Part VI, Part X, Part XXVIII, or other Food and Drug regulations must be permitted. Only those facilities which produce a retail-packaged food, drug, or cosmetic commodity are required to register such commodities with FDU. See the FAQ section below for detailed information on this topic.

UV Tanning

Indoor tanning using ultraviolet sunlamp-based equipment has been a popular activity since the 1970's, but it has only been subject to regulation in the state of Louisiana since 1990. Louisiana is one of 24 states in the U.S. that currently regulate UV tanning, and it is one of only five that mandate classroom training for UV tanning equipment operators.
