Business Licence Renewals

In Sidney, business licence renewals are free of charge. New businesses pay a fee only once, upon initial application. Business licences must be renewed annually by completing the renewal form on or before February 28th of each year.

Business licences not renewed by the deadline will expire and require a new application and fee.

Business licences can no longer be renewed for 2024. To apply for a new business licence, please see the Starting a Business page.

Have questions? Please email licensing@sidney.ca or call 250-656-1725.
