Opening or operating a business in Toronto? Whether it’s a personal service like hairstyling or tattooing, a retail storefront, or a food establishment, many businesses require a municipal license—and not getting it right the first time can delay your opening or result in fines.
The City’s licensing system is comprehensive, but that can also mean confusing. ApplicationPro breaks it down into manageable steps and helps you avoid the most common issues that hold applicants back.
We support you by:
- Identifying whether you need a license (and which type)
- Explaining zoning compliance and building code requirements
- Highlighting potential stumbling blocks (like inspections or outdated floor plans)
- Preparing a submission-ready application
