The Business License Department would not be able to answer on a timeline for those departments since it is not their area of expertise. Those are the departments that will take time with plans, inspections, corrections, permits etc. You would need to speak with Development Services, Health, or Fire depending on what would be required based on your business location and the type of business you would like to conduct. But if your business type requires permits that will take longer. If it is a simple home based business it should take a day or so. The time it takes depends on the complexity of your business. How long will it take to process my business license? For example, if you have a restaurant with a pool table you need two business license: Retailing (I classification) and Unique (M classification) You are required to obtain an additional license for each business activity even if it is in the same location.
