When engaging in business activity for a period of 30 days or less, a temporary license may be issued. A temporary license is valid only for 30 days and may be limited to a specific time period if issued for a Special Event. Provide the temporary license application and a license eligibility form with a nonrefundable payment of $25. Glendale-based businesses are not eligible for a temporary license and are required to complete the standard application process.

Documentation Requirements:
According to the Legal Arizona Workers Act (A.R.S. 41-1080), a license eligibility form is required to issue a license if your business ownership type is identified as an Individual, Sole Proprietorship, or Husband and Wife business. Before your license can be approved, you must provide a copy of a document indicating your presence in the United States is authorized under federal law (if applying as Husband and Wife, both individuals must provide documentation). After you have completed the form, return it along with the applicable business license application for your type of business.
