# Shop license

A term used when buying barbershop.

The shop's own license, which is separate from the license each barber working in it holds.

Two licenses have to be right on closing day and buyers routinely check only one: each barber holds a personal license, and the shop itself holds another that is usually tied to the owner and the address and does not simply transfer. An inspection failure closes the doors. Ask for the shop license, its expiration, its last inspection report, and what the state requires when ownership changes.
