All food and health renewals are sent out annually, in November of each year for registration of the following calendar year.
 

The renewal notices are on the first page of the document and the Certificate of Registration is on the second page.

Common questions

The full registration fee must be paid by the due date and we are unable to offer payment plans.

For new businesses, registration fees are paid at the application stage. 

For existing businesses, renewal notices are sent in mid to late November and are due December 31st each year. We’d suggest planning for this each year to make sure you are able to make payment on time.
