Apply for extension of the travel business card
Source: BUS Rheinland-PfalzIf you want to be self-employed in a traveling trade, you generally need a traveling trade permit.
You operate a travel trade if you are active as a showman or showwoman, "flying trader" or owner of a market stall, i.e. if you offer your services or goods at constantly changing locations.
According to the law, the following commercial activities are classified as travel trade under the Trade, Commerce and Industry Regulation Act:
- the purchase and sale of goods
- the offering of services
- the solicitation of orders for services
- the performance of entertainment activities as a self-employed showman or according to the showman type.
The travel trade permit can be issued with a time limit, if this is necessary for the protection of the general public or consumers.
If you have a temporary travel business card and wish to extend it, you must apply to the competent authority.
