City of Enderby Business License
The City of Enderby not only offers some of the lowest business license fees around, but it also issues a unique “perpetual” business license for most types of businesses. This perpetual license means that you only need to apply once, with no renewal fees – this saves business owners time and money! Enderby also participates in the Inter-Community Business License (ICBL) program enabling businesses to work in any participating community with a single ICBL.

For most businesses, a business license to operate within the City of Enderby costs $75. Depending on the nature of your business, approvals by a Building Inspector, Planner, Fire Prevention Officer and/or Health Officer may be required prior to issuance of a business license.
The City of Enderby is pleased to sell its business licenses on a “perpetual” basis, meaning that you do not pay a fee for renewal. Your license remains valid unless there is a change in premises or ownership. This saves businesses money and reduces paperwork!
