Irving, Texas: door-to-door solicitor permit

Not readable yet: the city’s rules could not be read from a primary source on the date shown. Use the call sheet.

• The answer: No solicitor or peddler permit was found in Irving's current code. The code's table of contents lists no peddler, solicitor or canvasser chapter. Chapter 27 used to cover solicitations and handbills; the editor's note says so, and the chapter is now Pedestrian Clear Zones (Ordinance 2023-10833). The code does not say in words that no permit is needed, so confirm with the city using the City Clerk Call Sheet.
• Where it comes from: Irving's Code of Civil and Criminal Ordinances on eCode360, which states it includes legislation adopted through August 27, 2026. The city's Police Forms + Applications page lists no solicitor permit application.
• Fee: Not published. The current code has no solicitor or peddler permit, so it sets no fee.
• Hours you may knock: Not published. The current code sets no knocking hours for door-to-door sales.
• Code: Irving Code of Civil and Criminal Ordinances; Chapter 27, Pedestrian Clear Zones (27-1 to 27-4), with the editor's note on the former solicitations and handbills chapter.
• Worth knowing: Chapter 27 now makes it an offense to stop, stand, sit or walk in a designated pedestrian clear zone at listed major intersections (27-3). That is a roadway rule, not a doorstep rule.

Ask the clerk, and write the answer down: Does Irving require any permit or registration for for-profit door-to-door sales now that the old Chapter 27 is gone, and which office handles it? Whether the city enforces any knocking hours for solicitors; Whether a posted No Soliciting sign is enforced by the city.
