What is January 2026 New Business Licenses – Salt Lake City, UT?
The January 2026 New Business Licenses list is the Salt Lake City Corporation Finance / Business Licensing report titled "Approved Business Licenses - Last Month", covering licenses with a last approval date from 1/1/2026 to 1/31/2026. It ends with a total count of 222 records.
The city's license data page explains the series: each month the Business License office generates a list of businesses that applied for a business license during the previous month, and each monthly file is opened by choosing the month on that page. The January 2026 file was generated as of 2026-02-18 10:18:59 Mountain Standard Time and is sorted by Account Name in ascending order.
Every row has six columns: Accela License Number, Account Name, Account Address, Business Type, NAICS and Last Approval Date with the time of approval. The Business Type values that appear are Rental, Commercial, Home and Contractor.
The report header lists its filters. It shows only applications with status Approved, leaves out applications whose name contains RENEWAL, leaves out account names containing Master, and leaves out the record types Independent License and Non City. It is therefore a list of newly approved licenses, not a full register of every licensed business in the city.
Who needs to file January 2026 New Business Licenses – Salt Lake City, UT?
The list serves anyone who wants to see which businesses were approved for a Salt Lake City business license in January 2026, by name, address, business type or NAICS code. The city posts it on its license data page for each month.
Points to keep in mind:
- It does not apply to a business that wants to get licensed. Nothing on it is completed or signed, and it contains no application instructions.
- Renewals, master accounts and the Independent License and Non City record types are filtered out, so a business you expect to find may not appear.
- The city states that it does not provide the list in any format other than what is posted.
- The report footer prints "Confidential Information - Do Not Distribute". Ask the Business License office about redistribution before you pass the list on.
When to file January 2026 New Business Licenses – Salt Lake City, UT
Nothing is filed on this document; it is generated each month. The city's license data page says the Business License office produces a list of all businesses that applied for a business license during the previous month. The January 2026 list covers last approval dates from 1/1/2026 to 1/31/2026, and the copy on this page was generated as of 2026-02-18, so it reflects approvals recorded up to that date. Later months are posted as separate files on the same city page.

Common mistakes to avoid
- Treating the list as an application for a Salt Lake City business license; it is a report of approved licenses and has nothing to complete or sign.
- Looking for a renewal in this list; the report leaves out applications whose name contains RENEWAL.
- Expecting every licensed business to appear; accounts with Master in the name and the Independent License and Non City record types are filtered out.
- Reading the January file as a count of everything approved later; it was generated as of 2026-02-18 and covers 1/1/2026 to 1/31/2026 only.
- Assuming the year in a license number matches January 2026; some numbers carry earlier years, because the list is sorted by Last Approval Date, not license date.
- Asking the city for a spreadsheet version; the city says it does not provide the list in any format other than what is posted.
- Redistributing the report without checking, although its footer reads "Confidential Information - Do Not Distribute".
