Taliansko: potravinové inšpekcie

Inšpekčný orgán

Local health authority (ASL, Azienda Sanitaria Locale), food hygiene service SIAN

The local health authority (ASL) inspects restaurants through its food hygiene service (SIAN). It has other names in some regions: ATS in Lombardy, ULSS in Veneto and ASP in Sicily. The Carabinieri NAS, a health unit of the military police, can also inspect and tells the ASL what it finds.

Visits are based on risk. A new restaurant notifies the ASL through the town’s one-stop desk (SUAP). Fines include €1,500–9,000 for no registration, €500–3,000 for breaking hygiene rules and €1,000–6,000 for no HACCP-based procedures. The ASL can stop all or part of the business, and selling food in a bad state of preservation is a crime.
