license application

Official permission paperwork

A license application is a formal request submitted to obtain official permission for something—driving, hunting, operating a business, practicing a profession.

The application typically requires documentation, fees, and sometimes examinations: Her license application was denied due to incomplete paperwork.

The term appears in bureaucratic and legal contexts where authorization must be granted before an activity can legally begin.
