Fill in and send the correct application form

The form you need depends on the:

  • type of licence you need
  • where you want to trade

You’ll need to:

  • fill in the form in block capitals
  • complete every required field - we cannot accept incomplete applications
  • include your supporting documents
  • send it by email to the address on the form

If someone is going to work with you, we call them a market assistant. You'll need to fill in a separate form for them.
