Business Owners:

Before engaging in business in Sandpoint, you must first register with the City.  If you are selling any goods or performing any services, soliciting business, or offering or holding out goods or services for sale or hire within city limits, you are "engaging in business", as defined by City Code, and required to register.  This definition includes businesses that are here only temporarily or are based elsewhere but are providing services or engaging in any type of business within city limits, and it also applies to nonprofit organizations.  Please click here for a link to City Code and review Title 3, Chapter 11.  If you will be operating your business out of a home located within city limits, please also review Title 9, Chapter 11.

Click here for the Sandpoint Business Registration Application.

 

This is a fillable form; you can type directly in the form, then print it.  Or, if you'd prefer, you can print the blank form and fill it out in pen.  Either way, you must sign the application, and you must include the $25 registration fee when you submit it to the City Clerk's office.

 

Please mail your completed form to:
