Do you need a food license to set up a stall to sell food

Generally, selling food stalls requires food safety certificates and employees' health certificates. Health certificates are generally handled at the local centers for disease control and prevention. The food hygiene license shall be applied to the administrative department of health in accordance with the regulations, and relevant materials shall be submitted. After examination and approval by the administrative department of health, a health permit shall be issued.

Food stalls need to meet certain conditions before they can apply for food business licenses. First of all, you need to consult the local food and drug supervision department for application. Secondly, you need to provide relevant supporting documents, such as ID card, business license and catering service license. Finally, you need to review and evaluate according to the regulations to ensure that your food stalls meet food safety standards.

Food license refers to a food business license issued by a legal entity engaged in food sales and catering services in People's Republic of China (PRC) with the approval of the food and drug supervision and administration department. The food business license is based on the principle of one place and one license, that is, a food business operator shall obtain a food business license when engaging in food business activities in the business premises. The date of issuance of the Food Business License is the date when the licensing decision is made, and the validity period is 5 years.

According to the Food Safety Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), food production, food sales and catering services shall be licensed according to law. However, sales of edible agricultural products and sales only in prepackaged foods do not require permission. Only selling prepackaged foods shall be reported to the food safety supervision and administration department of the local people's government at or above the county level for the record. Therefore, to sell food, you need to apply for a food business license, and you need to meet the relevant conditions before you can obtain a license.

According to local requirements, the specific treatment procedures and required materials may be different. For details, please consult the local food and drug supervision and administration department or relevant institutions. At the same time, we should also pay attention to observing food safety standards to ensure the health and safety of consumers.

In a word, food license is a necessary document for engaging in food sales and catering service activities, and should be handled in accordance with relevant laws, regulations and provisions.
