The city is reminding Nanaimo business owners that unpaid 2017 business licence fees are now past due.
Licence invoices were mailed during the last week of November and the fees were due Dec. 31.
All business licence accounts with outstanding fees can be fined under the city’s business licence bylaw.
Those who must hold business licenses in Nanaimo include commercial building owners who lease space to other businesses within the commercial building, owners of mobile businesses operating from a residential dwelling in Nanaimo, organizers of trade shows or special events that operate for one to five consecutive days where products are promoted for future sale and sold at a fixed location.
Business owners who have not received their 2017 invoices, business owners who have relocated, or are no longer operating businesses are asked to notify the city’s Licensing Office as soon as possible at licencing@nanaimo.ca or in person at the Service and Resource Centre, 411 Dunsmuir St.
Licensing staff are contacting all outstanding business licence account holders to remind them their fees have not been paid.
