About this file

This document is a business license requirements guide issued by the City of Little Rock Treasury Management Division, which outlines the licensing obligations for businesses seeking to operate within Little Rock city limits or conduct business with the city. The document does not describe a specific procurement opportunity but rather establishes the licensing framework that potential contractors must navigate when bidding on city contracts or establishing operations in Little Rock.

The licensing requirements vary based on business location and structure, with businesses having physical locations in Little Rock required to obtain licenses for each location, while businesses based in other Arkansas cities may use licenses from their home jurisdictions if those cities require licensing. Out-of-state businesses without Arkansas locations must obtain Little Rock licenses unless they already hold licenses from other Arkansas cities, though out-of-state companies are exempt from licensing requirements when merely bidding on proposals and only need licenses if they establish permanent locations within city limits for project duration. Non-profit organizations are completely exempt from business license requirements, and the Treasury Management Division, under Treasury Manager Scott Massanelli, maintains authority to determine license validity and ensure license classifications match the type of work being conducted in Little Rock.

City of Little Rock Business Licenses Requirements

The City of Little Rock Treasury Management Division will determine validity of all business licenses.

If a business has a physical location in Little Rock, they are required to have a business license for each location.

If a business is based in another city in Arkansas, that city has jurisdiction over the business. If that city requires a business license, we will honor their license. If the city does not require a license such as Conway and they are coming into Little Rock to conduct business, they will be required to obtain a license from us unless they have already obtained one from another City in Arkansas in which case we will honor that license.

If the business is an out-of-state business which does not have a physical location anywhere in Arkansas, they will be required to obtain a license from us unless they have already obtained one from another city in Arkansas, in which case we will honor that license.

Keep in mind the licenses they provide must be for a classification comparable to the type of work they will be conducting in Little Rock.

An out-of-state business does not need to obtain a business license if they are just bidding on a Little Rock purchasing proposal. If the out-of-state company wins a bid from the city, they would only be required to obtain a business license if they set up a permanent location in the city limits of Little Rock for the duration of the project.

A Non-Profit Organization is exempt from having to obtain a business license.
