The activity of your company will determine if you should apply to join the registry.

Once you have been registered in it, you must keep the health authorities up to date on any change in the ownership and physical address of your company, in the characteristics of your products and in the manufacturing processes.

You must also notify them when you discontinue the manufacture or sale of a product for which you had authorization.

The request is made in the Administration of the corresponding Autonomous Community, whose staff will be in charge of channeling it to the General State Administration.

Depending on the particularities of your business, we can distinguish between various forms of registration in the health registry of food and food companies. We detail below the most common:

Registration in the health registry for products of animal origin.

After the corresponding documents have been delivered, an official inspector will verify that the facilities and processes comply with the established protocols before the company can begin to carry out its activity.

Declaration responsible for registration in the health registry for products of non-animal origin.

In this case, unlike the previous one, the procedures are faster in terms of starting activity, since, at the same time that the declaration of responsibility is requested, the owner can already carry out the activity, regardless of the fact that he will later receive the visit. of the inspectors to check whether they comply with health regulations and must make, where appropriate, the corresponding modifications or adaptations to continue with the activity.

Registration in the regional register of food establishments selling directly to the final consumer.

For supermarkets, butchers, fishmongers, greengrocers, bakeries, bars, restaurants, cafeterias, hotels, school canteens, company canteens, hospitals, celebration houses...

This situation occurs for retail businesses that must make a responsible declaration and will be able to carry out their activity immediately, as in the previous case, pending supervision by the competent health authority.

Notification of the placing on the national market of food supplements and foods for specific population groups (infant formula, food for special medical uses...) for their registration in the health registry.

In the case of placing on the market for the first time of this type of product, of national manufacture or of other countries belonging to the European Union.

Depending on the registration procedure, you may have to deliver a photocopy of the NIF of the natural or legal person requesting; a technical memory, that is, a report that contains the description of your company, products, plans of the facilities and labeling; and a document of the self-control system that demonstrates compliance with the requirements regarding safety and hygiene in food handling.

It is extremely important that you are always prepared for routine reviews, carried out from time to time by the Administration. They are intended to verify compliance with food safety and hygiene rules.
