Phoenix, Arizona: door-to-door solicitor permit

• The answer: No — not under the city’s door-to-door soliciting article, which regulates the activity without requiring a permit for it. Read the limit below before treating that as a green light.
• Fee: None under that article.
• Hours you may knock: 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. from April 1 through September 30. 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. from October 1 through the following March 31.
• What the rep carries: A government-issued identification document in the rep’s own name, promptly displayed for inspection on request (23-142).
• Code: Phoenix Code 23-140 to 23-144 (Ord. G-5593, 2011)
• Worth knowing: An absence in one chapter is not an assertion about a whole city. This says the door-to-door article requires no permit. It does not say that nothing else in the city code touches your business.
• Read it yourself: Phoenix Code 23-140 · Phoenix Code 23-141 · checked 5 September 2026
