As long as it is an enterprise, no matter what industry, it must apply for a business license. Because of the particularity of the catering industry, it is generally necessary to prepare some small documents to apply for a business license, such as health certificate, hygiene license and so on. Health certificates can be handled in hospitals or CDC. Because the health certificate requires a physical examination, you need to pay a certain fee. At the same time, there are also fire-fighting requirements, and it is generally necessary to equip a portable dry powder fire extinguisher.
The second basic document is the food business license, which needs to be handled by the Food and Drug Administration. 20 15 before the implementation of the new food safety law, you must apply for a catering license to engage in the catering industry. After the implementation of the new Food Safety Law, the previous food circulation license and catering license were merged into food business license. After handling the above documents, you need to go to tax registration and file for small and micro enterprises (you can enjoy income tax concessions for small and micro enterprises). Small restaurants are basically small-scale taxpayers, and tax returns are quarterly, as long as they are declared and paid on time.
