| Temporary Food Registration | | A Temporary Food Registration is a trial registration that is valid for a short period of time, for example; if you wish to sell food at a market stall on a trial basis you can apply for a Temporary Food Registration. The fee for this Temporary Food Registration will be charged on a pro-rata basis and if you decide to continue with your registration on an annual basis the fee you have paid will be deducted from the annual registration fee (provided you apply for full registration in the same calendar year as your Temporary Food Registration was granted).
