Business Licensing and Permits (Puerto Rico Focus)

Obtaining and maintaining the necessary business licensing and permits is a fundamental legal requirement for operating in Puerto Rico. Navigating the specific application processes and requirements of various government entities on the island can be a complex and time-consuming endeavor.

Our practice specializes in assisting businesses with securing the licenses and permits needed to commence or continue their operations legally in Puerto Rico.

We guide you through the administrative procedures of local and state agencies, providing clear counsel on eligibility criteria, required documentation, and navigating bureaucratic processes efficiently. Leveraging our knowledge of the local administrative landscape and agency requirements — including experience from government roles that oversee such processes — we help you obtain the necessary authorizations to conduct your business in full compliance with Puerto Rico law.

Whether you need initial business licenses, operational permits, professional licenses, or specific industry approvals, we help you navigate the path to lawful operation.
