FSSAI registration in Kurhani: which licence you need
For a small food business in Kurhani the requirement is the basic FSSAI registration. Since 1 April 2026 it covers any food business with turnover up to ₹1.5 crore a year — which includes almost every shop, stall, mill and home kitchen in a rural block. The application is made online with an identity proof, a photograph and proof of the premises, and the certificate carries a 14-digit number to be displayed at the place of business.
Registrations and State licences for premises in Bihar are granted by the state’s food safety authority through its designated officers; Central licences are issued by FSSAI’s own regional office. In every case the application, fee payment and certificate are on the FoSCoS portal, so no visit to the office is normally required.
The food trade in Kurhani and what the law asks of it
Kurhani’s food trade is spread over many small markets rather than one centre: grocery and general stores in each, sweet and snack shops, milk collection and paneer makers, and stalls and carts that set up on haat days and at bus stops along the highway. Almost all are within the basic registration tier. Because the businesses are scattered, many owners have simply never been asked for the number — until a distributor or a bank does.
Grocery stores across the block’s markets
Retailer registration, certificate on display.
Sweet shops and milk-product makers
Registered as manufacturers, with “best before” on loose sweets.
Haat-day stalls and highway carts
Basic registration, or deemed registration with a vending certificate.
What applies to each kind of food business
Kirana & General Stores. For a grocery shop the questions are few: what is the yearly turnover, is anything repacked, and is there a separate godown. Turnover decides the tier — the basic registration covers shops up to the revised ₹1.5 crore limit — and a godown at another address needs its own registration. A shop that also supplies other shops is a wholesaler or distributor for that part of its trade and should say so in the application.
Sweet Shops & Dairies. Sweet shops and dairies are treated as manufacturers because they prepare what they sell. Loose sweets must show a “best before” date on the tray or container, and milk and milk products are among the most frequently sampled items. Dairy units handling larger volumes need a licence with details of chilling and processing capacity.
Street Vendors & Small Eateries. Hawkers, thela vendors, tea stalls and small snack counters fall under registration, not licensing. Under the 2026 changes, vendors holding a certificate of vending under the Street Vendors Act are treated as registered. Those without it apply in the usual way with an ID, a photograph and a description of where they sell.
Why the food licence matters
- An application that describes a wholesaler as a retailer, or leaves out the godown, has to be modified later.
- Milk, khoya and sweets are sampled heavily in the festival season, and an unlicensed counter has no defence.
- A registered vendor can join municipal vending zones, food-street schemes and bank micro-credit programmes that ask for the number.
- Licences now continue without renewal, but missing the annual fee or return leads to automatic suspension.
- Operating a food business without a registration or licence is an offence under the Food Safety and Standards Act, with penalties that can run into lakhs of rupees.
How we get your registration or licence
- Scoping. Activity, products, capacity and turnover are noted so that the tier and the kind of business are right the first time.
- Paperwork. We prepare the declaration, the product list and — for licences — the layout plan, equipment list and food safety plan with you.
- Filing and queries. The application is filed on FoSCoS; if the officer raises a query or schedules an inspection, we respond and guide you through it.
- Grant and upkeep. The licence is issued and shared; annual fee, annual return and any modification are tracked from then on.

Questions about FSSAI registration in Kurhani
A vendor without a fixed shop registers with the place from which the business is run — usually the home address — and mentions the areas of operation. The registration certificate should be carried along and shown at the stall.
Yes. Food law registers premises, so a storage godown at another address is applied for separately, as a storage or wholesale activity. Where it is part of the same premises as the shop, one registration covers both.
No. The shop and the separate manufacturing premises each need their own registration or licence, because the law licenses premises, not just the owner. We file both together.
Yes, at the basic registration level. Vendors who hold a valid certificate of vending under the Street Vendors Act are now treated as registered; others can apply online with very few documents.
On the certificate displayed at the premises, on every food label, and on invoices, bills and menus. Online listings on delivery or e-commerce platforms also carry it.
Every food business operator — anyone who manufactures, processes, packs, stores, transports, distributes or sells food, including small shops, home kitchens and online sellers. Farmers selling their own primary produce are generally outside the requirement.
