Will the City of San Rafael notify me when it is time to renew my license?

As of January 1st 2022, we have gone paperless. As a courtesy we will email your renewal reminder around 3 weeks before your expiration date to the email address on file. This email will have a direct link to the renewal portal along with the account number and PIN that you will need to log in. You can renew without penalty up to 45 days after your expiration date, however it is your responsibility to renew your business license in a timely manner even if the renewal notice is not received. Penalties are assessed on delinquent accounts, regardless of whether you received a renewal notice.
