Business Licenses
Business Registration
Any person starting a business within the city limits must apply for a business registration fee for each place of business, prior to the start of their business. The business registration application is reviewed for zoning and safety issues by appropriate city departments. The business registration fee ($35) is collected annually, and is not transferable to another party. Business Registration Application (DOC)
Business License
Some business ventures (such as pawn shops, solicitors, secondhand dealers) or businesses without a permanent location in Artesia will require a business license, rather than a business registration. Business licenses fees vary based on the type of business, and are not transferable. Business License Application (DOC)
Home Business
Home Businesses are regulated through the Community Development Department. Please contact their Office for guidelines and an application.
