Food Premises & Food Stall Registration

Under the NSW Food Act 2003, all food handling businesses and food stall holders at temporary or periodic events in NSW are required to "notify" their details to the NSW Food Authority.

The only exceptions are those food businesses in certain industries which are directly licenced by the NSW Food Authority. Businesses that need to "notify" include, for example:

fixed and mobile food outlets food retailing businesses food stall holders at temporary, periodic and/or one-off events food transporters hospitals school canteens child-care and aged-care facilities which provide food businesses involved in food storage food wholesalers food manufacturers in any form, and importers, among others

All food businesses must "notify" their details (unless they are licenced) so this list is not exhaustive. Link to NSW Food Authority notification web site  The simplest way to complete a notification is via the NSW Food Authority notification web site at http://www.foodnotify.nsw.gov.au/nafs_prod/   There is no fee for this form of notification.

For people who are unable to use the web site, a notification form can be lodged with Walgett Shire Council for a small fee.
