Q: How much does an FSSAI license cost in Jharkhand?

All food service suppliers such as restaurants, clubs, canteens, etc. are charged a government fee of ₹ 2,000. The government fee for the FSSAI State license is ₹ 3,000 for products under 1MT for milk units ranging from 501 to 10,000 LPD or 2.5 MT to 500MT per year. It is generally necessary to get legal counsel before applying for an FSSAI license.

Q: Under which circumstances will my FSSAI application be refused?

If the relevant information is not provided within the specified 30-day period, or if the licencing officer is convinced that the application filed is unsustainable and cannot be permitted, the application may be rejected. Before the license is denied, the applicant will be given an opportunity to be heard.

Q: What is the primary distinction between FSSAI registration and licensing?
