All applicable City, County, State and Federal laws must be complied with concurrently while licensed in Nephi City.

Those businesses operating out of a residence will generally be required to apply for and obtain a home occupation business license. Check with the City to determine what category your business fits into and what requirements will apply.
- Solicitor License: If you are applying for a solicitor license you will also need a business license. Please find the solicitor License HERE. Please note you cannot solicit to any person or place of business until the solicitor and business license are approved by Nephi City.
