133 days median · 169 days average
across 758 newly listed businesses since 2022

Measured from a business appearing in the published FSA dataset to its first rating appearing there. Authorities publish with delays (appeal windows, batch updates), so this reflects the register's speed, not necessarily inspection speed.
