Thank you for your interest in locating your business in Layton City. A valid Layton City business license is required for all businesses located within the Layton City incorporated limits.

"Business" means all kinds of vocations, occupations, professions, enterprises, establishments, services provided, and all other kinds of commercial activities and matters, including the keeping of a machine, which are conducted for private profit or benefit, either directly or indirectly, on any premises in the City or anywhere else within its jurisdiction.

Business Licensing Fees

All licensing fees are as set forth in the City's Consolidated Fee Schedule. To avoid delays in application approval, please contact Business Licensing to verify the fee associated with your business.

Business License Renewal

Each business license expires one (1) year from the date of issuance. Approximately twenty (20) days prior to the expiration date of the business license a renewal letter and renewal form will be mailed to the mailing address of record. If there are no changes to the business name, address or ownership, an Online Business License Renewal has been developed for your convenience.

IMPORTANT: If your business has had one or more of the following: Location Change, Name Change, or Ownership Change, your current license is not transferable, causing the license to no longer be valid and therefore may not be renewed. A new business license application must be submitted for approval.
