Food Premises Registration
Registration Summary
To store, prepare, distribute or sell food on premises within the River Tees Port Health Authority boundary, you need to be registered with River Tees Port Health Authority. Premises include restaurants, cafes, hotels, shops, canteens, market stalls, mobile catering vans and food delivery vans.
Some manufacturers handling products of animal origin may need to be approved by River Tees Port Health Authority, rather than registered. If you are uncertain whether your business needs to be approved or registered, contact us using the contact details below.

Consumer Complaint
We would always advise that in the event of a complaint, the first contact is made with the trader by you – preferably in the form of a letter (with proof of delivery). If that has not worked, if you are located within the UK, Citizens Advice will give you advice. From outside the UK contact the UK European Consumer Centre.
Trade Associations
Chilled Food Association
National Federation of Meat and Food Traders
