Would you like to set up a stall at the Cabo de Gata Street Market market, located at Almería? To sell as a street vendor, you need a municipal street vending permit or license: this is issued by the town council, not the market itself, and typically requires that you be registered as a self-employed individual or a business, be in good standing with the tax authorities and Social Security, and have liability insurance that covers the stall.
Cabo de Gata Street Market is held on Saturdays. The exact fee is set by the Almería town council; please check it before submitting your application.
