Public business agencies

Business agencies are understood to be undertakings, however organised, that exercise for profit an intermediary activity aimed at concluding a business deal of any kind in the interest of others.

The elements characterising business agencies are therefore
- the organised and habitual exercise of the activity in a professional capacity
- the provision of the work to anyone requesting it;
- the activity of intermediation.

Over the years, special rules have gradually been introduced for quite a few types of agency, which have been governed by sectoral rules and thus variously regulated, subtracting them from the general public security rules (e.g. employment agencies, insurance agencies, press agencies, car practice agencies, real estate agencies, travel agencies, etc.), contained in the Consolidated Law on Public Security approved by Royal Decree No. 773 of 18.6.1931.

Fill in the communication using the appropriate forms, which may, complete with the enclosures provided, be delivered by hand, sent or sent by certified mail to the following address: serv.polamm@pec.provincia.tn.it.

The communication must be accompanied by a photocopy of the planimetry conforming to the actual state and/or eventual location of the exhibition, with the identification data noted (also necessary in the event of transfer of the activity, extension/reduction of the surface area intended for the activity)

The communication is valid exclusively for the purposes of Article 115 of the Consolidated Law on Public Security and does not exempt from the obligation to acquire any further authorising titles (licences, authorisations, concessions, inspections, permits, entries in public registers or registers, etc.) provided for by other sector laws in order to carry out the activity concerned (urban planning/building/health regulations/fire prevention/etc.).

It entails the obligation to regularly keep the register referred to in Article 120 of the TULPS, which may also be kept by computer, endorsed by the Public Safety Authority. In this case, Public Security Authority means:
- the President of the Province, operationally the Provincial Administrative Police Service if the activity is carried out in the Municipality of Trento;
- the Commissioner of Public Security if the activity is carried out in the Municipalities of Rovereto and Riva del Garda;
- the Mayor if the activity is carried out in the remaining Municipalities.
