The city of Atlanta announced recently that businesses will have until April 20 to pay their business license fees without penalty, according to a press release. Once full payment is posted, an official business license will be mailed to the address of record within three to five business days.

The city of Atlanta experienced a ransomware cyberattack on Thursday, March 22 that affected multiple applications and client devices.

Business license operations are impacted in the following ways:

  • The online payment and license renewal platforms are inaccessible;
  • The portal used to create an electronic version of a business license is inaccessible.
  • Customers have two payment options available at City Hall:
  • Payments can be mailed to (include your business license number):
