Trade or commercial licence for Guatemala: what and why
Licences prove that your business is allowed to manufacture or trade a product: municipal trade licences, factory licences, drug manufacturing licences, FSSAI licences and similar permits. Trade, factory, manufacturing, drug and FSSAI licences are issued by municipal, state or central authorities depending on the activity.
Buyers and agencies in the Americas may request apostilled licences when registering Indian suppliers.
Companies dealing with Guatemala are most often asked for a legalised trade or commercial licence during product registration by regulators, as well as for plant or supplier approval and tenders.
A trade or commercial licence issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. Guatemala accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.
