Under the Town’s Business Licence Bylaw, all businesses operating within High Level must have a valid Business Licence.
New Businesses
Before starting operations in High Level, new businesses must apply for and obtain a Business Licence. The application form can be found on our Forms and Permits page under the Planning & Development section.
Renewing Your Business Licence
Businesses that held a valid Business Licence in the previous year will receive a renewal invoice via email, sent to the email address on file. Once the renewal fee is paid, the Town will email the renewed businesses licence, which must be printed and displayed at the business.
Online Business Licence System (PSD CityWide)
The Town now processes business licence applications and renewals through PSD CityWide, an online platform. When a new application is submitted, it is entered into the system, and payment requests are sent via email. Approved or renewed licences are also issued through this platform.
Payment Options:
- Online payments can be made through the email link provided by notifications@psdcitywide.com. This payment link will be auto-generated once the Planning & Development department review your application or renewal and request payment through the PSD CityWide system.
- In-person payments are still available at the Town Office.
If you receive an email requesting payment for a business licence or renewal, and are unsure of its authenticity, please contact the Planning & Development Department at (780) 926-2201 or development@highlevel.ca for verification.
