You must have a Temporary Street Fair Vendor Permit to sell goods or offer services from a booth or stand at a street fair.
A permit or license isn't required to sell items at a garage sale on private property.
You can't use a Temporary Street Fair Vendor Permit as a General Vendor License; it is only valid for selling goods and offering services at street fairs. To learn more, go to the General Vendor License page.
Fee
The fee is $10.
Expiration
The permit is valid for one month and is not renewable. After it expires, you must apply for a new permit. Once your permit has expired, you are considered unlicensed and must submit a new permit application. You may get penalties for operating without a permit.
