In Australia the app follows the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code, Chapter 3: Standard 3.2.2 (food safety practices) and Standard 3.2.2A (food safety management tools), which every state and territory applies through its own Food Act. You choose your state or territory when you sign up. Chef Hygiene keeps your daily records; it does not register your business, and it is not approved by Food Standards Australia New Zealand, any state or territory, or any council.

معائنہ کا ادارہ

Your local council's environmental health officers (in the Australian Capital Territory, ACT Health; in the Northern Territory, NT Health), under the Food Standards Code as each state's and territory's Food Act applies it

Register your food business with your council before you start (with ACT Health in the ACT and NT Health in the NT; in Queensland a licensable business gets a licence from the council). The council's environmental health officers inspect restaurants, cafés and takeaways (in the ACT and the NT, the territory's health department). In Victoria, Safe Food Victoria (since 1 July 2026) licenses dairy, meat and seafood businesses, while councils still look after restaurants and cafés.

Officers check the Food Standards Code. Under Standard 3.2.2A (since 8 December 2023) a category one business (a caterer or food service business that makes ready-to-eat potentially hazardous food from unpackaged ingredients: restaurants, cafés, takeaways, caterers) needs a food safety supervisor, trained food handlers and records; a category two business (a shop selling unpackaged ready-to-eat potentially hazardous food it did not make) needs the supervisor and trained handlers. Some states add rules: in Victoria a class 2 business doing the listed higher-risk activities keeps a food safety program (most use the free FoodSmart template); in Queensland caterers keep an accredited food safety program. In New South Wales a penalty notice for not following the Food Standards Code is $660 for a person or $1,980 for a company (NSW Food Authority register, 2026); we did not confirm the amounts in other states.

There is no national grade. Some councils give a voluntary star rating after their normal inspection: NSW's Scores on Doors (3 stars Good, 4 Very Good, 5 Excellent), Queensland councils' Eat Safe and South Australia's Food Safety Rating Scheme. Taking part is voluntary.
