FSSAI Food Licence Registration in Hyderabad
Every food business in India must be registered or licensed with the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI). This includes restaurants, cloud kitchens, bakeries, sweet shops, caterers, grocery stores, food manufacturers, distributors and home-based food sellers. Naresh Pokala & Company helps food businesses in Hyderabad get the right FSSAI registration or licence on the FoSCoS portal.
Types of FSSAI Registration
- Basic Registration: for small food businesses with annual turnover up to ₹12 lakh, such as small shops, home kitchens and petty food sellers.
- State Licence: for medium-sized food businesses above the basic registration limit, issued by the Telangana food safety department.
- Central Licence: for large food businesses and certain categories such as importers, exporters and businesses operating in more than one state.
We check your turnover and type of activity to choose the right category, since applying under the wrong one can lead to rejection.
