If I sell bread on the sidewalk, do I need a certificate of food safety in Vietnam?

If I sell bread on the sidewalk, do I need a certificate of food safety in Vietnam?

Pursuant to Clause 1, Article 12 of Decree 15/2018/ND-CP, which stipulates that exemption from the certificate of food safety:

1. The following entities are not required to obtain the certificate of food safety:

a) Micro food manufacturers;

b) Mobile food manufacturers and sellers;

c) Micro food processors;

d) Micro food sellers;

dd) Sellers of prepackaged foods;

e) Manufacturers and sellers of instruments and materials for wrapping and storing food;

g) Restaurants within hotels;

h) Industrial kitchens not registered as a food business;

i) Street food vendors;

k) Any food business that has one of the following certificates: GMP, HACCP, ISO 22000, IFS, BRC, FSSC 22000 or an equivalent certificate.

In this case you selling bread on the sidewalk can be seen as a street food business. Thus, you are in the cases where you do not need to apply for a certificate of food safety in Vietnam.

Best Regards!
