How early should I start renewing my license and establishment card?

It’s best to begin at least a month before the expiry date. This allows enough time to process any additional paperwork and avoid potential penalties.

Do I need to handle separate processes for activity amendments and partnership modifications?

Typically, these can be combined under a single amendment process if you’re making changes at the same time. DocuBay coordinates the steps to reduce duplication and save you time.
