Details

Product fee	$40 $40 per product per year 'regardless of package size' (IDAPA 02.06.02.115.01; Pet Treats pamphlet). Fee waived (registration still required) for sellers not regularly in the feed business with gross annual sales ≤ $500 (IDAPA 02.06.02.115.02, eff. 7-1-26)
Product late fee	$10 per product if renewal not postmarked before Nov 1 (Idaho Code § 25-2704(4)); $25 per product penalty if found on sale before registration (§ 25-2704(8))
Renewal window	registration year Oct 1 – Sep 30; renewal must be postmarked before Nov 1 (deadline Oct 31)
Exempt	customer-formula feed (§ 25-2704(1)) chews with no nutritional claim (rawhide, hooves, ears, bones, antlers, pizzles etc.) are exempt from registration (Pet Treats pamphlet) products already registered by another person and distributed in the original package (§ 25-2704(5))
Tonnage note	No tonnage or inspection fee in Idaho (AAFCO Idaho: 'Inspection Fees and Reports: n/a'; Idaho Code title 25 ch. 27 has no inspection-fee section) — the $40/product registration fee is the only charge
Third-party filing	unknown: “State page: 'To get login credentials for registering feeds, send an email to FFS@isda.idaho.gov with the company name, physical address, mailing address (if different), contact person, contact phone & email, and the company website.'”
Before you file	Complete label with guaranteed analysis and calorie content — 'you must send a sample of the product to a lab for analysis' (Pet Treats pamphlet)
Mail to	ISDA, P.O. Box 7249, Boise, ID 83707 (street: 2270 Old Penitentiary Rd, Boise, ID 83712)

How the online filing goes

Log in
Company Information (from user guide — screen not seen; same data as the credential request email)
Main Page → 'Please choose a type' → add new products
Invoice → Pay Invoice (online)
Renewal season (each fall — 'IT IS RENEWAL TIME' on the Main Page)

Your packet lists every value for each screen. Pay the FFS invoice online by card at onlinepay.isda.idaho.gov (a service charge applies; posting takes 7–10 days and the invoice shows 'payment pending' meanwhile). Registrations are not valid until paid in full. The portal does not describe a check option — ask FFS@isda.idaho.gov if a mailed check to ISDA, P.O. Box 7249, Boise, ID 83707 is accepted.

Forms

Good to know

Off-cycle year: Oct 1 – Sep 30, deadline Oct 31 — the only fall deadline in this batch.
Idaho's cottage-food law does not apply to animal feed; homemade treats must be fully labeled (guaranteed analysis + calorie content) and registered.
Review can take up to 90 days after submission and payment; certificate is downloaded from the portal.
No paper application PDF is published — registration is portal-only; a 'contact person' is given when requesting credentials.
