It only needs to be registered once. Unlike many other business licenses, your APEDA license doesn't expire after a certain amount of time.

Help from the government to pay for things

If you register with APEDA, you can join government programs. People think of the processed food market as a key part of the country's economy. So, once you are registered with APEDA, you can ask the government for financial help.
