Frisco, TX Soliciting & Door-to-Door: Solicitor Permits (2026)

Chapter 22, article III of the Frisco Code of Ordinances requires a permit under § 22-71 for anyone who personally, or through an agent or employee, solicits funds or distributes a commercial handbill on another's property. Five categories are exempt: distributing noncommercial handbills, a charitable organization soliciting its own members, charitable solicitation on premises the solicitor owns or controls or was invited onto, solicitation or handbill distribution on a public sidewalk, and simply announcing that a charitable solicitation will occur. Applications go to the city police department under § 22-72 and must include the applicant's identity and addresses, the handbill sponsor or merchant's information, the individuals directly supervising the activity, the solicitation's start and end dates, the method of solicitation, and other communities solicited in the past six months; the applicant must appear in person with photo ID, and a minor of thirteen or younger needs a parental consent form under state labor law.

003(1). The police department reviews and issues the permit under § 22-74 unless the application is deficient, a prior permit was revoked in the past twelve months, the applicant has a felony conviction, or the applicant gave false information or identification.
