MBPP Business and Signboard License Application
The Majlis Bandaraya Pulau Pinang (MBPP) Business License is a mandatory requirement for all businesses operating within the Penang Island City Council area. It ensures that operations comply with legal, safety, and health regulations. Without this license, businesses risk fines, legal action, or closure. The license type depends on the business activity, such as retail, food, or services.
Additionally, businesses must obtain an MBPP Signboard License before displaying any signage. The council regulates language, design, and placement to meet Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka (DBP) standards. Failure to do so may result in fines or signboard removal. Securing both licenses ensures smooth and compliant business operations in Penang.

Issues Faced by Owner
MBPP Business License in Pulau Pinang
When setting up a business at a new location (145, Lebuh Aceh, George Town), one of the most crucial requirements is obtaining the MBPP. However, the business owner are unaware of the application process, the necessary documents, and the steps required to complete the application successfully.
Without a valid MBPP Business License businesses risk facing government fines of up to RM20,000. To avoid legal issues and ensure smooth operations, it’s essential to understand the correct procedure and prepare all required documents in advance.
DBP License
Entrepreneurs operating businesses in Seremban must obtain a DBP License before displaying any business signage. The application process requires strict compliance with regulations on the signboard’s size, design, and language. Failure to secure this license can result in fines, forced removal of the signboard, or other legal consequences.
DBP is responsible for reviewing applications, ensuring that signboards meet the required guidelines, and granting approvals. They also conduct inspections to verify compliance and may take enforcement action against unlicensed or non-compliant signage.
Many business owners are unaware of these requirements, leading to unnecessary delays and additional costs. To avoid penalties and ensure smooth business operations, it is crucial to obtain proper approval before putting up any signage.
