Do you need a CP44 mobile catering gas safety certificate?
If your catering business operates LPG (bottled gas) equipment in a mobile vehicle or outside location, you will require an annual CP44 gas safety certificate by law. Your vehicle and equipment will need to be inspected for gas safety by an engineer registered with Gas Safe. You will not be able to operate commercially unless you can provide an event organiser with proof your gas equipment has been inspected and is safe.
How much does a mobile catering gas safety certificate cost?
A standard mobile catering certificate costs £185.00 + VAT per vehicle or setup, eg gazebo, trailer or standalone unit.
What is the correct certificate?
Unfortunately, the onus is on the catering business to ensure they obtain the correct safety certificate. We have found that some gas engineers are issuing leisure certificates. These are not the correct certificates and will not be accepted by local authorities or events planners. The correct name for the certificate is a CP44 Commercial Mobile Catering Certificate (LPG)
