Door-to-door solicitors in San Leandro must register with the Police Department and carry a city-issued permit while canvassing.
Under the San Leandro Municipal Code, commercial solicitors and peddlers must apply for a permit, submit to a background check, and display the identification badge while working. Political and religious canvassers receive First Amendment accommodation and are not required to obtain a commercial permit, though they must still respect no-solicitation signs. Permit hours typically restrict solicitation to daytime windows such as 9 AM to 7 PM.
Soliciting without a required permit is a misdemeanor, and permits may be revoked for fraud or consumer complaints.
