  1. we have already deposited amt.5000/- with invoice-009049 dated19/03/2020 for renewal fee of our distributer license (food business operator)
    plz.send our current status of license and deposited amt.

  2. You have not mentioned about food license to private limited companies. Earlier basic registration was allowed. Now state license is required. Further, you have not mentioned about your charges for getting all these licenses. Particularly, I want to know about export purpose. What is your charges and how many days it takes? Is there any guarantee of getting it done within a specified number of days?

  3. hi, I have a FSSAI basic reg. KOB – Gen Manufacturing with turnover less than 12lac p.a. We do not manufacture any of your products, however we get them as while label where in we repack, label and sell currently in our own brand. However, we now plan on repacking and labeling other brands too as well as retail/sell other brands. Please advice if a “KOB: retailer” needs to be also added on my FSSAI.

  4. Hi,
    I want to start a high end multi cuisine restaurant cum/pub & bar in Bhubaneswar. Budget is not a constraint as it will be on priority basis. We have seen some lands in Bhubaneswar which we want to purchase/lease but nothing has been finalized. Is it necessary to obtain the license first or set up the hotel and then apply for the license.

    I am totally new in this business, hence I would require all the help from you. Please assist me in obtaining the licenses and how much do I have to pay for it . All food, bar license included.

    Waiting for a positive response from your end

    Regards
    Bipul Dash
