business permit
Commercial activity license
A business permit is an official document from a local government authorizing someone to operate a business in that jurisdiction.
Requirements vary by location and business type—restaurants need health permits, contractors need trade licenses.
The term often overlaps with business license, though permits may address specific activities while licenses cover general operation: She couldn't open the salon until the city issued her business permit.
