FAQ
What happens if I set up my seasonal sale without a permit?
A fine and your stand shut down in the middle of the event, with the merchandise already bought and the weekend lost. Temporary activity also requires a permit.

Yes: temporary business activity also requires a municipal permit.
How much does it cost?
The professional fee, from $90, covers handling the permit; the municipal fee is separate.
Does it work for fairs and booths?
Yes, and for brand activations, kiosks and seasonal sales.
How far ahead should I apply?
Ahead of the event; we tell you your city hall's lead time.
About this procedure
Not every business activity needs a permanent license: some sales and events are, by nature, limited in time, a booth at a fair, a brand activation at a mall, a Christmas season sale, a kiosk for an event, a stand at an expo. For that, city halls have the temporary activity permit, which authorizes you to carry on a business activity for a set period without forcing you to put together the whole structure of a permanent patente (business license) you won't use afterward.
The usual mistake is thinking that because it's a one-off, a few days or a few weeks, no permit is needed. But temporary business activity is also on the municipality's radar: it's trade within its jurisdiction, it triggers its tax, and operating without the permit exposes you to fines and to the city hall itself, or the event's inspector, shutting down your stand right in the middle of selling, which is usually when the person who bet on that season or that fair loses the most. An event shut down over a missing permit is money and opportunity down the drain.
We handle it fast, which is what this procedure calls for: we identify the temporary permit that fits your activity and dates, gather the required documents and process it with the city hall in time for your event. The price starts at $90 and is adjusted to your municipality and the activity. A lawyer reviews your situation and confirms it with you before we start, no strings attached.
