Operating Requirements

    Renewals may be submitted online via the NYC Online Licensing system. Registration is required. You will not be permitted to renew a permit if you have outstanding fines. You can pay fines online before renewing.

    To renew online for the first time, you will need the Personal Identification Number (PIN) found on your Renewal Notice for each permit or license you hold. The PIN will allow you to link your existing records to one single online account. You only need to use your PIN to link to each permit or license record once.

    If you do not have access to your Renewal Notice, you may obtain your PIN(s) by completing an online PIN Request Form or by calling 311. 
    Note: If you need to upload any documents, you will be prompted to download the Microsoft Silverlight application.

      Applying for a DOHMH permit or license does not satisfy the regulatory requirements of other City and State Agencies. It is the business owner's responsibility to apply for all other permits, licenses, and authorizations required by other City and State Agencies. The issuance of a DOHMH permit does not grant permission to use or occupy the permitted premises. Pursuant to New York City Charter Section 645, no premises may be used or occupied until a certificate of occupancy has been issued by the New York City Commissioner of Buildings. Failure to comply with all relevant regulations, including those under the jurisdiction of other Agencies, may result in the suspension of Department of Health and Mental Hygiene permits until proof of compliance is provided.

      For help with technical problems when using the online licensing/permitting system, call 311 and ask for Health Permits Online.
