What if I have multiple units in different categories?
If you have a head office and units in multiple states, you generally need one Central License for the head office and separate licenses/registrations for each unit.
Is a 5-star hotel eligible for a State License?
No, all 5-star and 4-star hotels are mandatory Central FSSAI License categories.
Can my eligibility change during the year?
Yes, if your business expands and crosses the capacity/turnover limits, you must apply for a 'Modification' to stay in the correct category.
