Food premises registration
| Licence summary | To store, prepare, distribute or sell food on premises you need to be registered with the local authority. Premises include restaurants, cafes, hotels, shops, canteens, market stalls, mobile catering vans and food delivery vans. Some manufacturers handling products of animal origin may need to be approved by the local authority or the Meat Hygiene Service, rather than registered. If you are uncertain whether your business needs to be approved or registered, contact your local authority. |
| Eligibility Criteria | No provision in legislation |
| Regulation Summary | A summary of the application process and form for registration |
| Application Evaluation Process | The premises will be inspected within 28 days of receipt of an application for registration. |
| Will Tacit Consent Apply? | Yes. This means that you will be able to act as though your application is granted if you have not heard from the local authority by the end of the target completion period |

| Consumer Complaint | We would always advise that in the event of a complaint the first contact is made with the trader by you - preferably in the form a letter (with proof of delivery). If that has not worked, if you are located in the UK, Consumer Direct will give you advice. From outside the UK contact the UK European Consumer Centre. |
| Other Redress | E.g. about noise, pollution, etc. Also should one licence holder complain about another. |
