May 28, 2026

The following table is a listing of food additive and color additive petitions filed by FDA's Office of Food Additive Safety (OFAS) that are either under active review or held in abeyance as of the date shown above. This list does not reflect petitions filed after that date, or any change in status for the listed petitions that has occurred after that date.

Abeyance is an administrative category of petitions that are filed but non-active because of deficiencies that were identified during FDA’s review. A petition remains in abeyance until either the petitioner provides OFAS with the required information, requests a final decision based on the data currently in the petition, or requests withdrawal of the petition. When the petitioner provides the information required to address all deficiencies, the petition may be refiled resulting in a new filing date.
