Business Licences
All businesses, including home-based and temporary businesses, require a licence to operate legally within Leduc.
Processing times vary, so applicants should apply well in advance of their intended start date. Businesses operating without a licence may face fines or other penalties.
Fees for business licences are outlined in the Fees & Charges Bylaw. For new businesses located in Leduc, your fee will be based on the portion of the year remaining when you apply for your licence.
For Non-Resident Businesses, when you apply for a business licence after August 31, the fee for the rest of the year will be 50% of the annual fee.

Businesses who wish to set up a seasonal outdoor patio on public property from April 15 to October 15 are required to complete an application for a Licence of Occupation. Applicants are encouraged to schedule a pre-application meeting with our Planning and Economic Development team to learn more about the requirements. Previously offered in the downtown core only, the patio program has been broadened to allow businesses anywhere in Leduc to participate and will be offered on an annual basis moving forward.

A taxi operation permit is required for taxi businesses with a minimum of three licensed vehicles and a 24/7 dispatch service. Operators need to provide company details, including a Provincial registration document, current fares/rates, and a completed Taxi Statutory Declaration. Annual renewal is mandatory, and vehicle inspections are required to maintain valid operation status.
Taxis are subject to City inspections for vehicle quality and rate regulation adherence. Non-compliance can lead to suspension or revocation of permits.
