FSSAI License in Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu

This union territory, anchored by the industrial hub of Silvassa, has built a genuine manufacturing base thanks to lower tax rates and proximity to Gujarat and Maharashtra's supply chains — drawing in thousands of small and mid-sized factories that need working capital and equipment finance. Any individual or company in Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu manufacturing, storing, or selling food needs an FSSAI registration or license.

StartRight4U supports Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu-based food entrepreneurs through licensing and the compliance that follows.

Understanding the FSSAI License

Under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006, virtually every food business in India — manufacturing, processing, storing, distributing, or selling — needs FSSAI registration or licensing, structured into three tiers matched to business scale: Basic Registration, State License, and Central License.

Which Tier Applies to Your Business

• Basic Registration: turnover up to ₹12 lakh — small retailers, hawkers, home-based food operations
• State License: turnover between ₹12 lakh and ₹20 crore — restaurants, mid-sized manufacturers, distributors
• Central License: turnover above ₹20 crore, importers, and multi-state businesses regardless of size

Why This License Is Essential

Operating a food business without the correct FSSAI registration or license is a criminal offence under the Act, with penalties that can extend to imprisonment for serious violations. It's also foundational for opening a business bank account, joining food delivery platforms, and earning consumer trust.

Documents Needed

• Business registration proof
• Identity and address proof of the applicant
• Food safety management plan matched to the tier
• Business premises proof, where applicable
