FAQs

Yes, FSSAI Registration or Licence is mandatory before applying for a Food Trade Licence. The FSSAI certificate proves your food business meets the safety and hygiene standards required by the health department.

The health department conducts an inspection of your premises to check hygiene conditions, waste disposal, water quality, pest control, kitchen cleanliness and storage facilities. Our team helps prepare your premises for inspection.

Food Trade Licence is usually valid for one year and must be renewed annually. The renewal involves a fresh health department inspection to ensure continued compliance with food safety standards.

Operating a food business without a valid Food Trade Licence can result in fines, immediate closure orders and legal action by the municipal health department. Additionally, FSSAI may also impose separate penalties for non-compliance.
