As an established business owner or a budding entrepreneur, working with your local municipality to understand the bylaws in your community is essential.

If your business is located within the boundaries of a municipality, you will need written approval from that municipality.

Not all municipalities have a planning authority that issues permits for tourism operations. Download the Municipal Boundaries Map to determine the status of your location (orange indicates a municipality without an official plan and white indicates an area that is not incorporated).

Below is a list of PEI municipalities with planning authority along with the related contact person.
