How to distinguish whether a foot bath is formal or not:

Look at the appearance of the store. A normal store doesn't have too many fancy things. There will be no cover-ups. If it is a regular foot massage shop, it will operate openly and openly.

Check whether there is a business license. This is the most intuitive way to directly determine whether it is formal. If it is formal, it will usually be hung directly on the wall. If not, it may be irregular.

See if there are any formal tools. Anyone who has been to a pedicure knows that a pedicure usually comes with a pedicure basin, pedicure materials or other related things. If there is nothing like this when you enter, it must be illegal.

Look at the professionalism of the staff. The staff's familiarity with pedicure, their familiarity with acupuncture points, and the professionalism of their techniques can tell whether it is an authentic pedicure shop!

Observe customer groups. Are there only male customers but no female customers? This is all very critical information. Normal foot massage parlors are open to both men and women, and elderly people also occupy a large part of them.

Learn from the shops nearby. By visiting some nearby shops, you can get some general information about them, which can also be used as a supplement to whether they are regular.

A business license is a certificate issued by the industrial and commercial administration authority to industrial and commercial enterprises and individual traders allowing them to engage in certain production and business activities. Its format is uniformly stipulated by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce.

The registration matters are: name, address, person in charge, amount of funds, economic composition, business scope, business method, number of employees, business period, etc. The business license is divided into original and duplicate, both of which have the same legal effect. The original copy shall be placed in a conspicuous place at the company's residence or business premises, and the business license shall not be forged, altered, rented, lent or transferred.

Industrial and commercial enterprises or self-employed individuals without a business license are not allowed to open their business. They are not allowed to engrave official seals, sign contracts, register trademarks, or publish advertisements. They are not allowed to open bank accounts.
