Which FSSAI License Does Swiggy Accept?

Swiggy accepts any valid FSSAI approval, as long as it is the right one for your business. It does not ask for a higher tier than the law does.

Your kitchenAnnual turnoverWhat you need
Home kitchen, small cloud kitchen, cafe or restaurantUp to ₹1.5 croreBasic Registration
Larger restaurant or multi-brand kitchen₹1.5 crore to ₹50 croreState License
Very large food businessAbove ₹50 croreCentral License

Each kitchen address needs its own approval. If you run two outlets on Swiggy, each listing needs the FSSAI number of the kitchen it ships from.

How to Get a Swiggy FSSAI License and Go Live

1. Apply for FSSAI

Use the exact legal name and kitchen address you will give Swiggy. Choose food service as the kind of business.

2. Get your 14-digit number

Once granted, download the certificate. Keep a clear PDF or photo ready.

3. Start Swiggy onboarding

In the partner sign-up, enter the FSSAI number and upload the certificate along with PAN, bank details and menu.

4. Verification

Swiggy checks the number against FSSAI records and compares name and address with your listing.

5. Go live

After approval, your FSSAI number appears on your restaurant page for customers to see.

6. Keep it active

Pay the annual FSSAI fee on time. A suspended license can take your listing offline.

Why Swiggy Rejects an FSSAI License

  • Name mismatch. The certificate is in the owner name while the listing uses the brand name, with nothing linking the two.
  • Address mismatch. The certificate shows a home or office address and the kitchen is somewhere else.
  • Wrong kind of business. A trader or retailer registration used for a kitchen that cooks food.
  • Expired or suspended. Older licenses that ran out before the 2026 rules, or where the annual fee was missed.
  • Unreadable upload. A cropped or blurry photo of the certificate.

We ask for your Swiggy listing details before filing, so the certificate matches from the start.

FSSAI for Swiggy: Common Questions

Yes. Swiggy asks every restaurant partner for a valid FSSAI registration or license during onboarding, and shows the number on the restaurant listing.

The one that matches your turnover. Most restaurants, cloud kitchens and home kitchens with turnover up to ₹1.5 crore need Basic Registration. Above that you need a State License.

Yes. Home kitchens can register with their residential address and use that registration to apply as a partner.

The usual reasons are a name or address that does not match the listing, an expired or suspended license, or a license issued for a different kind of business.

Basic Registration is usually granted in about 7 days. If you have a launch date, our Tatkal service puts your application first.
