Address Change

Salon owners must apply for a NEW permit through the Original Shop Permit application if the shop changes ownership or the shop location has changed.

If you are selling the shop/salon to a new owner, DO NOT simply give them your license. They must apply for the owner's permit themselves and may contact the Board for assistance.

Failure to notify the Board of address changes in a timely manner can prevent license renewal notification. A $25 late fee will be charged when a license is not renewed by the expiration date.
