Economic operators carrying out commercial activities, service provision, and public catering (corresponding to the CAEN codes listed in the Annex) are required to submit documentation for obtaining the operating agreement or the operating authorization for conducting public catering activities.

Obtaining the operating authorization is not required in the following situations:

• for the work points of legal entities with a non-profit purpose (associations, foundations, etc.) that do not carry out commercial or service provision activities;
• for food and non-food product manufacturing activities conducted in industrial areas provided for in the Zoning Urban Plan and that do not involve selling products through their own sales structures;
• for spaces exclusively intended for gambling and betting activities;
• for law offices, offices of notaries public, judicial executors, judicial liquidators, mediators, chartered accountants;
• for medical offices, medical analysis laboratories, and medical clinics;
• for financial intermediation activities (currency exchange, insurance, etc.);
• for other forms of legal organization that operate based on specific laws.
