When you apply for the business license, you must apply for the catering service license, fire control approval, sewage discharge permit through environmental assessment and other licenses, and at the same time, you must apply for health certificates for employees. In addition, after doing a good job in the business license, it is necessary to examine and approve the official seal, engrave the seal, handle the organization code certificate, handle the official bank account, handle the local tax, national tax registration, social security procedures and so on.
A business license is a necessary prerequisite for the opening of a restaurant. With a business license, your store is initially opened. There are two forms to apply for a business license: pre-standard and post-standard.
first, the former business license means that after the restaurant has passed the inspection of sanitation, fire protection and environmental assessment before opening, it will be applied to the industrial and commercial bureau, which will issue a formal business license after passing the examination and approval.
The pre-processing standard business license mainly includes the following steps:
