What are the necessary licenses for a catering company in Malta?
First of all, an entrepreneur must choose the business structure in order to
establish a catering company and in most cases, the
limited liability company and the sole proprietorship represent the suitable options in this case. The following requirements should be considered at the time you wish to
register a company in the food sector:
- • the Food Safety Commission issues the necessary licenses for the catering company;
- • the Regional Environmental Healthcare Directorate releases the food safety certificate;
- • a Catering Establishment License is necessary for such type of business;
- • the same environmental department will analyze and inspect the premises before the catering business is opened.
It is to be mentioned the fact that the Food Safety Certificate is released if the sketch plan of the business location and the declaration affirming the proposal of the applicant are approved by the authorities. Instead of dealing with the formalities for the
company registration in Malta, it is best to talk to our team of advisors who can also help you apply for other permits too, like the Public Sewer Discharge Permit.
