Transient Merchant / Solicitor Permit

Any person wishing to act as a transient merchant or solicitor in the Village of Elm Grove must apply for a Transient Merchant Permit.  The application must be completed and filed along with a driver’s license or other government issued photo identification.  If applying by mail a copy of a government issued photo identification must be included.  The $75.00 fee must accompany the application; except that a person affiliated with a charitable organization is exempt from the fee, provided documentation is provided to the Village Clerk demonstrating that the organization is registered under §440.41 Wis. Stats.

If a Transient Merchant Permit is approved, the applicant must have a photo taken at Village Hall and will be given a Transient Merchant Identification Card.  This Card must be in plain view on the front of the person with the name and photo unobstructed at all times.
