Buying health & wellness businesses in Vancouver: what is different here

Licensing, inspection and land-use rules are municipal, so they change at the city limits — these are the ones that attach to health & wellness businesses in Vancouver.

The municipal business licence

Vancouver's Licence Office issues a general business licence that most businesses operating in Vancouver need. It is issued to the operator, not to the premises, so it does not come with the business — a buyer applies in their own name, and the application is worth starting before closing rather than after. On top of it, Vancouver licenses “Personal Services” specifically, so a health & wellness business here usually carries a second, category-level licence as well.

Public health inspects this, not just restaurants

Vancouver Coastal Health inspects personal service settings in Vancouver — tattooing, piercing, nail and aesthetic services — on the same regulatory footing it inspects restaurants. A buyer should ask for the premises' inspection history and confirm that equipment reprocessing and record-keeping meet the standard now, because the obligation transfers with the operation even where the licence does not.

Confirming the use is actually permitted

A business operating today is not proof the use is legally permitted — non-conforming uses, expired variances and conditions attached to a previous owner all survive a sale quietly. In Vancouver that is confirmed before closing rather than after, through the office linked below.

City of Vancouver
