What this form is
New Providence requires a new owner to submit an initial application to the Board of Health for a massage establishment permit. Applicants must complete every page and include the requested identification copies, photographs, fingerprints, and a notarized company letter authorizing the applicant to act as representative—or stating that the applicant owns the company. The form also includes the applicant’s sworn certification and space for the notary’s signature and seal.
Who needs it
A new owner or their authorized applicant seeking a New Providence massage establishment permit must complete this application and provide the listed supporting materials.
Why it needs a notary
The applicant signs the certification before a notary, who completes the form’s “Sworn and subscribed to me” jurat; a company authorization or ownership letter must also be notarized.
