For businesses operating in multiple states, a Central Food License is required. It’s important to note that manufacturers and marketers must obtain an FSSAI State License regardless of their turnover. The license is valid for a maximum of 5 years and a minimum of 1 year.

What is FSSAI State License
Food License is a mandatory requirement for anyone involved in the food business, including those handling food at various stages before it reaches the customer. This includes individuals or entities involved in sourcing raw materials, manufacturing, processing, packaging, distribution, and selling of food products. The license ensures that food businesses comply with the necessary standards and quality checks mandated by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI).
The FSSAI, or Food Safety and Standards Authority of India, is an autonomous body established under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006. It operates under the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, and is responsible for governing food businesses in India. Any business related to food processing, manufacturing, packaging, or distribution must register under the FSSAI. Upon registration, the business is provided with a 14-digit food license registration number, which must be displayed on food packages or in the premises. This license number contains information about the producer’s permit or registration details and the manufacturing state.
It’s important to differentiate between FSSAI basic registration and FSSAI license. The criteria for obtaining the license or registration vary based on the size and nature of the business. FBOs (Food Business Operators) should ensure they obtain the necessary registration or license as per their business requirements.
