Business Licensing

Every person engaged in business in Commerce City must comply with the city's licensing and tax laws. All businesses are required to obtain a general business license even if the business is a service-only business.

If your business has more than one location within the city, a separate license is needed for each location. In some instances you may also be required to obtain additional specialty licenses due to the nature of your business. Applying does not constitute approval. The application must be filled out completely to begin the city’s review process. General business licenses do not need to be renewed annually.
