In individual cases, exceptions to these prohibitions may be permitted if, according to the circumstances of the individual case, there is no danger to consumers or the public and no concerns arise from the person of the applicant or other circumstances. These exceptions must be applied for at the responsible office.

The exemption permit is limited to the area of responsibility of the issuing authority.

The content of the exemption permit can be restricted (e.g. to certain types of events), it can be issued with a time limit and it can be linked to conditions. It is also possible to add, change and supplement conditions at a later date.

The holder of an exemption permit is obliged to carry it with him while carrying on the business, to show it to the competent authorities or officials on request and to cease his activities on request until the exemption permit is obtained.

Anyone wishing to operate a traveling trade always requires a permit, a so-called traveling trade card.
