Food Safety Certification in New Jersey
NJ Dept. of Health — Public Health & Food Protection (NJAC 8:24)
New Jersey requires a certified food protection manager for higher-risk (Risk Type 3) establishments and accepts only certificates from accredited organizations on its published list — the standard national ANAB/ANSI-accredited providers (ServSafe, NRFSP, 360training/Learn2Serve, StateFoodSafety, AlwaysFoodSafe, Prometric). NJ runs no exam of its own, so the manager exam's languages follow those national providers (Chinese, Korean, Japanese plus Spanish). Our practice bank is English, Chinese and Spanish.

Requirement and accepted-certification facts are confirmed from each state's official page (linked per row). Most states accept any nationally ANAB-CFP-accredited manager exam, so the exam LANGUAGE is set by the provider you pick (ServSafe/NRFSP offer Chinese, Korean and Japanese; Spanish is everywhere), not by the state — the exception is Texas's own DSHS-licensed exams and New York City's city exam. Pass marks and fees marked “to confirm” were not published on the official page. Always verify the current rule with your state or local health department before you register.
