No.

Effective July 17, 2018 not all home occupation businesses are required to obtain a business license from South Jordan City. The only types of home occupation businesses that require a license from South Jordan are:

  • In-home child or adult care and preschool businesses
  • Businesses that have customers/clients coming to the home
  • Any business that is required by another government agency to obtain a city business license

All other home occupations may operate without a city business license.

A home occupation business license is available to any home occupation business that is otherwise exempt from licensing but still wishes to have a city license. Simply apply for a Home Occupation Business License via the online Portal, submit required documents, and pay fees as per the City's fee schedule.
