The health license is the authorization issued by the Ministry of Public Health and Social Assistance of Guatemala, through which it is accredited that a certain business, activity or industry meets the basic health requirements for its operation.<\/span><\/p>\n

The authorization of processed food factories and warehouses has its own regulation, established in the Central American Technical Regulation RTCA 67.01.30:06, Annex 1 of Resolution No. 176-2006 (COMIECO-XXXVIII).<\/span><\/p>\n

In the case of Guatemala, said regulation establishes that the person interested in obtaining a sanitary license for factories or warehouses of processed foods must meet the following requirements:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Have administrative authorization for the location and construction of the factory or warehouse.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Have a current environmental impact study.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Have a valid environmental license.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Be formally constituted as a commercial establishment (applies to individual and legal entity).<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Details of the products to be made in the factory or to be stored in the warehouse.<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. Prove that good manufacturing practices are followed at the site.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    In case of not having said valid sanitary license, the factory or warehouse can be sanctioned with a fine and can even be temporarily or permanently suspended, depending on the seriousness of the case.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Therefore, we emphasize the importance of verifying compliance with applicable health and environmental obligations.<\/span><\/p>\n
