How do I renew or close my business license?

You can quickly renew your license or close it online. You will need your account number and a PIN, both of which can be found in a reminder email.
We have gone paperless! For annual licenses, we will email your courtesy renewal reminder around 3 weeks before your expiration date to the email address on file. For quarterly licenses, we will email your courtesy renewal reminder at the beginning of every quarter your account is eligible to renew.

If you have moved, changed ownership, or have any questions about your renewal, please contact us at BLRenewal@cityofsanrafael.org or (415) 485-3051 before renewing.
