A food truck in Harford County needs a mobile food service facility license from the county health department. Under Health-General §21-304 a truck licensed in its county of origin can obtain a reciprocity license to work other Maryland counties.
Mobile food service in Maryland is licensed at the county level under Health-General and COMAR 10.15.03. A food truck must hold a mobile food service facility license from the Harford County Health Department, which reviews the vehicle, its commissary, and food-handling before issuing. Health-General §21-304 lets an operator already licensed in its county of origin obtain a mobile reciprocity license to sell in another county, provided the truck operates within 90 miles of its base, and that county may not require a second inspection if the county of origin already inspected it. A certified food-service manager and compliance with the state food code apply throughout.
Operating without a valid mobile food service facility license, or outside the reciprocity terms, lets the county health department halt sales, void the license, and impose penalties under the state food code.
