Idaho Code 18-7008 criminal trespass enforces posted no-soliciting and no-trespassing signs at private residences, while local governments may operate municipal do-not-knock registries.
Idaho overhauled its trespass laws in 2018, and Idaho Code 18-7008 makes entering or remaining on private property after notice a misdemeanor. Notice may be given by personal communication, posted signs, or fencing. A clearly posted no-soliciting or no-trespassing sign at the residence provides legal notice, and a solicitor who proceeds may be cited. First offenses bring fines up to $500 plus civil damages. Idaho does not maintain a statewide do-not-knock registry, but cities may establish local registries enforced through ordinance. Charitable and religious solicitation remains protected by the First Amendment subject to reasonable time, place, and manner rules.
Trespass after notice carries fines up to $500 for a first offense, with escalating penalties and potential civil damages under Idaho Code 18-7008.
