Shop and Establishment Registration in Jaipur
Shops, offices and other commercial establishments are covered by state shop and establishment laws, which deal with working hours, holidays and employee records. In Rajasthan this is the Rajasthan Shops and Commercial Establishments Act, 1958.
Who needs it
Shops, offices, restaurants, clinics and other commercial establishments in the areas where the Act applies. Whether registration is compulsory depends on the area and on the size of the establishment; we confirm the position for your premises. Establishments in other states register under their own state’s law.
Documents required
- PAN and identity proof of the owner, partners or directors
- Proof of the business address
- Details of the nature of business and number of employees
- Photograph of the establishment with the name board, where asked
Process
The application is filed online with the Labour Department, and the registration certificate is issued once it is accepted. We also keep track of any change in details and renewals where they apply.
