Chứng Chỉ An Toàn Thực Phẩm in California

California — the country's largest food-service workforce — requires food facilities that prepare non-prepackaged potentially hazardous food to have an owner or employee who has passed an accredited food-protection-manager exam (Health & Safety Code §113947.1). California does not run its own exam; it accepts any ANSI/ANAB-CFP-accredited program and even caps price — at least one accredited exam must cost $60 or less and be available online (§113947.3). Because the accepted exams are the national ones, a manager can sit the test in Chinese, Korean or Japanese via ServSafe (online Chinese; paper Korean/Japanese) or NRFSP, or in Spanish anywhere. 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.
