Commercial Use Application Form
The Commercial Use Authorization (CUA) (pdf), new in 2006, replaces the Incidental Business Permit (IBP). The CUA authorizes incidental commercial visitor services that begin and end outside the park. The number of businesses authorized is currently not limited. CUA applications were mailed to all businesses in Alaska that previously held an IBP in 2005. The CUA Interim Guidelines (pdf) give more information about the commercial use and the form.
