Bed and Breakfast Registration in Chhattisgarh - Process, Fees & Benefits

Bed & Breakfast establishments in Chhattisgarh need to register their unit under the Ministry of Tourism. Registration of B&B units can happen only under the policy by MoT, as there is no separate state-specific scheme. Policy outlines the Common National Standards and Guidelines for Bed & Breakfast Establishments in India (2007).

Chhattisgarh is a land of 36 forts, and tourists visit the state to witness the tribal hospitality of the state. Chhattisgarh became a state in 1st November 2000 under the Madhya Pradesh Reorganisation Act (2000). Domestic and International tourists visit the state to explore key spots such as Kutumsar Cave, Achanakmar Tiger Reserve, Kanger Valley, and the renowned Bastar Dussehra torchlit procession.

Tourists visiting Chhattisgarh are choosing B&Bs for their stay. A primary reason for this shift from conventional hotel setups is the flexibility offered by B&B units. Guests can check-in for the night, have breakfast in the morning and leave. It is not just an economical but also an environment-friendly option.

  • Step 7: Quorum: The Quorum includes 1 member from state tourism, 1 from central tourism and 1 from the notified associations.
  • Step 8: NC can be raised by the department: Depending on the deficiency, NC (Non-compliance) can be raised by the MoT. It must be reverted to within the specified deadline.
  • Step 9: Re-submission of the application: After solving the raised queries, applicants need to resubmit their application.
  • Step 10: Issuance of inspection report: An inspection report will be issued to applicants stating the remarks and suggestions from the side of MoT officials.
