Millcreek, Utah: door-to-door solicitor permit

• The answer: Yes — a solicitor identification badge for each rep. No one may solicit door to door without first submitting a completed application to the license official and getting the badge (5.17.050). A business using employees, contractors or agents to go door to door must have each of them get a badge (5.17.180).
• Where it comes from: The city license official, through Millcreek Business Licensing; the city's Business Licensing page lists a Solicitor application and its required documents.
• Fee: $65.00 for the Solicitor ID, per the city's FY26 Consolidated Fee Schedule (amended November 12, 2025), which ties the fee to 5.17.060. The code itself sets no dollar figure; it points to the consolidated fee schedule (5.17.060).
• Hours you may knock: No soliciting at a residence before nine a.m. or after nine p.m. local time without the resident's express prior permission (5.17.160). This applies to exempt persons too (5.17.030).
• What the rep carries: The city identification badge, displayed at all times while soliciting. It shows "Millcreek," the rep's name, address and phone, the responsible company, a recent photograph and the expiration date (5.17.090).
• What takes the time: The application needs an in-person identity check with a state driver's license, ID card, U.S. passport or military ID; an original or copy of the rep's Utah BCI criminal background file plus a signed waiver; proof of Utah Department of Commerce registration; and a special events sales tax number (5.17.060). No processing time is published; a temporary badge is decided "within a reasonable period of time" (5.17.070).
• Code: Millcreek Municipal Code, Title 5, Chapter 5.17 — Residential Solicitation (5.17.010 to 5.17.200), on municipalcodeonline.com. No currency statement was read.
• Worth knowing: A "No Solicitation" sign must be honored (5.17.140). The buyer gets a written three-business-day right-to-cancel notice (5.17.170). A registered solicitor needs no other city license for door-to-door work (5.17.180). Someone whose Utah state license lets them solicit door to door is exempt from registering (5.17.030).
