Frequently asked questions
- How do I get the property owner’s affidavit notarized?
- Complete the affidavit details, then sign before a commissioned online notary during a video session. Include the notarized affidavit with your permit application if your proposed location is private property.
- Do I need the affidavit for every vending location?
- The application says the signed and notarized property owner’s affidavit is required where the proposed location is on private property. If unsure, confirm with the city or chancery clerk if unsure.
- Can I use an online notary for this affidavit?
- Mississippi notaries must notarize with the signer physically present, and Mississippi has not authorized its own notaries to perform remote online notarizations. Mississippi recognizes qualifying notarial acts performed by authorized officers of another state.
- What else accompanies the permit application?
- The form lists a city privilege license, approved food vending permit, equipment sketch or photographs, product list, insurance proof, signed release, and approved fire inspection among the required documentation.
