Itinerant trade
An activity of selling goods or services to private individuals by a trader outside their own establishment or, overall, by any other person, is subject to authorisation.
Various authorisations
The authorisation as an employer in the name of the company director allows the activity to be carried out in all places, including at the home of the private individual.
The authorisation employee B in the name of the person themselves allows the activity to be carried out in all places, including at the home of the private individual.
The authorisation employee A in the name of the company allows activities to be carried out in all places other than the home of the consumer and is interchangeable among the employees.
