Decision Guide

Which FSSAI License Do You Need?

Your licence type depends mainly on annual turnover and the nature of your food business.

License TypeBest ForAnnual Turnover
Basic RegistrationPetty & home-based food businesses, small retailers, hawkersUp to ₹12 lakh
State LicenseRestaurants, cloud kitchens, mid-size manufacturers, traders, transporters₹12 lakh – ₹20 crore
Central LicenseLarge units, importers/exporters, e-commerce, multi-state operators, central govt suppliersAbove ₹20 crore

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything food businesses ask about FSSAI registration.

What is FSSAI registration?
FSSAI registration/licence is issued by the Food Safety & Standards Authority of India and is mandatory for every food business operator. On approval you receive a 14-digit licence number that must be displayed on your premises and food packaging.
Basic, State or Central — which one do I need?
It mainly depends on turnover: Basic Registration for businesses up to ₹12 lakh, State Licence for ₹12 lakh to ₹20 crore, and Central Licence above ₹20 crore. Importers, exporters, e-commerce sellers and multi-state operators need a Central licence regardless of turnover.
Do home-based and online food sellers need it?
Yes. Home kitchens, tiffin services and online/cloud-kitchen sellers all need at least a Basic FSSAI registration. Food-delivery and e-commerce platforms will not onboard you without a valid FSSAI number.
How long is the licence valid?
You can choose a tenure of 1 to 5 years. We recommend renewing at least 30 days before expiry to avoid late fees and disruption to your business.
What is the penalty for not having an FSSAI licence?
Running a food business without a valid licence is an offence under the FSS Act, 2006 and can attract a penalty of up to ₹5 lakh along with possible imprisonment. Registration is the safest and cheapest route.
How long does it take to get the licence?
A Basic Registration is usually issued quickly once documents are ready. State and Central licences take longer as they may involve document scrutiny and, in some cases, premises inspection by the authority.
