The Ministry of Trade and Regional Integration has announced an extra 15-day extension to the annual business license renewal period, following continued complaints from traders over administrative delays. Business owners reported that delays in obtaining required clearances prevented them from completing the renewal process within the original deadline. The regular renewal period began on July 8, 2025, and was initially set to end on January 8, 2026. A 15-day extension was first granted for businesses unable to complete the process on time. Due to ongoing administrative challenges, the ministry has approved a further 15-day extension, bringing the total extension to one month. Businesses can now renew their licenses until February 7, 2026.
