# Certifications & Trust Standards

Every safety and quality claim we make is backed by verifiable third-party certification or government standards.

## 1. PGS-India Organic Certification
* **Standard**: PGS Organic Certified (Participatory Guarantee System of India)
* **Description**: A government-recognized organic certification system managed by the Ministry of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare, India. It guarantees that our teas are grown without synthetic chemical pesticides, herbicides, chemical fertilizers, or genetically modified organisms (GMOs). From soil health to packed seals, our process is entirely chemical-free.

## 2. FSSAI Certification
* **Registration Number**: FSSAI 10325001000313
* **Description**: Issued by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India. This certification confirms that Nevisan meets all regulatory food safety, hygiene, processing, and packaging standards required by the Government of India.

## 3. GST Registration
* **Number**: GSTIN 18AFAPJ8203P1Z7
* **Description**: Registered under Goods and Services Tax, Government of India. Verifies Nevisan as a legally compliant, registered tax-paying enterprise.

## 4. Single Origin Verification
* **Location**: Golaghat, Upper Assam, India
* **Description**: Every pack is sourced from a single tea garden. We provide complete transparency and traceability from the crop to the cup. We do not blend or substitute leaves from other gardens to cut costs.

## 5. Whole Leaf Standard
* **Processing**: No CTC (Cut-Tear-Curl), No Dust, No Fannings.
* **Description**: Unlike standard supermarket tea bags that use low-grade dust or fannings, Nevisan uses only whole or large-broken leaves. This allows the essential oils, L-theanine, and antioxidants to remain intact and release slowly across multiple steeps.
